Subject: Add support to daemonize guardian.
X-Git-Tag: 2.0~54
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/?p=people%2Fstevee%2Fguardian.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=ccf4f8e1c2fd681c8186e51fc1df93f42ef6e8bb

Add support to daemonize guardian.

Guardian now will be launched in daemon mode as default. Using the
"--foreground (-f)" command line switch will prevent the process from
forking into the background.
