hmm looks to my that either you missed the --background option for
start-stop-daemon or you missed the option for $DAEMON to send it to
background...
I see from the start-stop-daemon man page that I might can throw in a "-b" to force a detachment, but is that the correct way to fix my problem? The man page suggests that this should be a last resort.
So you're suggesting that I DO use the -b (or --background) option, that this is the correct fix for my problem?
I did add that in, and now I can exit out of my ssh session after starting the daemon, but as I say, since the man page says that's a last resort, I wasn't sure I should do that. (And I haven't tried to see if a "restart" or "stop" works properly from my script with that added in.)
Thanks!
