I have one deamon process which listen to the request from user and respond back.
While working on local system I execute it on terminal ./daemon
. When user make request ./client
from php page(executed by shell_exex() command) daemon process respond which some results. This is ok.
now I want to place this on ftp server. Php page whichc execute daemon process on button click event.
How could I make daemon process to keep listening on server continously? see daemon is c++ executable file.
One this is everytime I first execute shell_exec(daemon)
but then purpose is lost. I want some way daemon
process continously keep listening for the request!

Use daemon()
, it does exactly what you want.
If this function is not available on your system, take a look at this tutorial which explains you how to rewrite the function.
