My requirements (for server side daemons) are approximately: start a daemon as a child, and monitor it; if it dies, restart it. Ideally, give me a command-line interface to the managing daemon to gracefully start/stop the child. nohup doesn't do this, making it simply not the right tool for the job. I've never used runit, but it looks closer.
