Having an OpenBSD server I use a thing called nohup.
I have a shell script that starts/stops things for me
nohup /usr/bin/ssh -2 -N -f -L $L_IP:$L_PORT:$R_IP:$R_PORT
root@localhost 1>/dev/null
This starts a ssh tunnel port forwarding for me with a from and to
port assignment.
But, one crucial thing you haven't told us is what OS you are trying
to do this on.

Wow, that's really getting complex. All I want is for a php script to
get launched and the calling script to return immediately. I don't
necessarily have to know or care when the called script ends, just
want the user to get an immediate return instead of waiting around for
the lengthy script to run. I'm not talking AJAX or anything like that
where the page depends on the eventual output from the called script.
