http://www.arda.homeunix.net/store/tofmipd-daemon.patch

This patch adds the -D switch to tmda-ofmipd. This switch forces
tmda-ofmipd to run as a background process. If you use the -D
switch, you should not use an '&' to terminate the command that
starts tmda-ofmipd.

To apply this patch, copy tofmipd-daemon.patch into the directory
where tmda-ofmipd resides and issue this command:

patch -b --verbose < ./tofmipd-daemon.patch

This patch has been successfully applied to versions 0.62 and 0.63
of TMDA. If you find that this patch works with other versions,
please let me know.
