Subject: Re: script for production server

This is not a ruby specific problem.

All processes started "normally" from a shell are terminated when the 
shell exits.

There are many, many posibillities to avoid this, the most easy way 
would be the use of the programm screen. But it has several diadvantages.

I suggest to use a process supervisor (it will restart your programm 
when it crashes, and takes care of starting it after your server comes up).

Personally I use:

supervise (from djbs deamontools) and
monit

Feel free to google ;)
