I run a shell scrypt wich adds accounts for me, when I start the shellsscript:
./myscript &

#!/usr/local/bin/php -q
while(1) {
// adduser stuff
sleep(10);
}

when I start it it perfectly runs and works, but when I close the SSH session and come back later [when the script has outputted stuff to a non existent SSH session [where I started the script from]] the process is gone...
