ssh session doesn't terminate until programs are closed

[Hugo van der Merwe <hugovdm@mail.com>]

Hello,

I was wondering about an ssh session not closing until all the programs
started in it are closed. How can I change this behaviour? Or maybe
better, how can I modify my program to not be one of the programs it
waits for? (Currently I fork() once and only the child branch continues.
This does look like it backgrounds the program fine...)

Thanks,
