In this chapter, we had a look at how to set a process in the background and have it survive to our logouts and to most of the signal we could send to it. Next step was how to daemonize a process and how to make a system managed service out of it thanks to systemd. Is that all? Well, no. With a bit of creativity, we can assemble the bits and bricks we were given and create our own daemonized scripts and services, so this could be a nice homework during some rainy days.
We are now leaving daemons and moving onto something more related to system administration tasks, and we will see how to use some easy, powerful utilities and services to customize the environment we are working in and how to make it reasonably safe with little efforts.
