problem solved, or so it appears.  thank you, ALL of you, for your most 
excellent help.  A few of the lines of code referenced a hard-coded path 
name.  This was readily resolved by, prior to daemonizing, trap the 
correct path, then after the daemonizing, be sure to be in the correct 
path for proper processing, by deliberately changing to the correct path 
in the child process.  This seems to work properly.

FYI, there is another, slightly different and I'm not sure correct 
Daemon type code at http://www.bigbold.com/snippets/posts/show/2265, for 
those interested parties.  I couldn't get it to work properly, but the 
site says it does.

Again, Thank you All

RA
