daemon: Run a command as a daemon, writing logs to a specific file.
$ daemon --name="${name}" --errlog=${filename-log} ${command}
try on your machine
This is a command that starts a daemon process with certain configurations.
Here is a breakdown of the command and its arguments:
daemon
: This is the command to start a daemon process.--name="${name}"
: This specifies the name of the daemon process. The value of the${name}
variable will be used as the name.--errlog=${filename-log}
: This specifies the file to which the error logs of the daemon process will be written. The value of the${filename-log}
variable will be used as the filename.${command}
: This represents the command or program that the daemon process will execute.
So, when you run this command, it will start a daemon process with the provided name, redirecting its error logs to the specified file, and executing the given command. The values of the ${name}
, ${filename-log}
, and ${command}
variables should be determined or provided before executing the command.

never run a command you are not sure if it is safe.
