A puzzle, with pseudo devices :-)

	Ok, here is the setup. IBM RT PC AIX 2.2.1.

	I connect to the RT thru TCP/IP. I get loged into pseudo device 0 (pst0)

	After doing any kind of work, I logout and "loose" my connection (have
	hupcl on), no login prompt is re-spawned. Ok so far.

	I log in, and run a C program (myprog), which in turn does a fork of a
	detached process. This works fine. When I look at my "ps -ef" the
	process has parent pid "1" and does not have a port attached.

	myprog myproc (Spawns myproc as a detached process)

 	   UID   PID  PPID  C         STIME     TTY  TIME COMMAND
	myself    97     1  0      11:48:12       -  0:01 myproc

	Problem : When I go to log out, the line DOES NOT DROP, it actually
	re-spawns the login prompt.

	Why? What can I do in my fork that changes the behavior of my
	pseudo-tty? "stty -a" before and after the fork are identical. Hupcl is
	still set. No stty or ioctl calls are used. The program does not send
	any output to the screen.

	Hope somebody at least will know what to look at to notice change in
	behaviour of pseudo tty.
