I need to double-fork vmware so it doesn’t inherit the terminal ID (TTY/pts).
This is what I have so far, but I can’t get access to the runtime.exec process to fork another process (which removes the terminal ID).
Runtime runtime = Runtime.getRuntime();
Process proc = runtime.exec("vmware");
Is there a way to “daemonize” in Java?
You will need to write a small C or C++ program to do the extra fork, setsid, all that stuff.
