Linux proceses linked to mesh agent #3389

Kinda weird one.. I updated my mesh central installation yesterday and a processes running on my Pi just stopped, which was started inside the terminal tab.

I have a php irc bot which I started thru the mesh terminal. started with nohup to keep it running. I can disconnect the terminal without a problem. pstree sees it as a separate process.

Yesterday did the meshcentral server update and the bot process was killed. no network issue, just killed. I would not have expected this since it keeps on running with nohup just fine.

Is this a linux thing keeping it linked to its parent process?

This is a question for Bryan. I imagine that if you launch a process from the MeshAgent terminal and then restart the MeshAgent, that will stop the child process, but I don't know the details.
