I use a modified sample from Apple. <http://developer.apple.com/qa/qa2001/qa1133.html>

Yikes. Bad sample code. We shouldn't be recommending daemon()...

childPID = vfork();

You want to use fork() here instead. Any library calls besides _exit or one of the exec*() family of functions result in undefined behavior after vfork().
