The chdir("/") is from one of the unix text books. They say you HAVE to do it. If you start a
daemon on an NFS file system, you cannot unmount that file system as long as the daemon is
running. I'm sure the same code is inside most other daemons (apache, ...). So if we go away
from that standard, we have to be aware of the consequences. |
