something is killing my daemon process

Hi,
I am starting a daemon bash script like:

Code:

nohup mydaemonscript.sh &

It is basically an infinite loop and it appears to be dying about once every hour, by a SIGKILL (I think it's SIGKILL since my exit 0 trap is not triggered.)

Can anyone tell me if linux has some sort of auto-kill clean-up for orphans (like my daemon becomes after I log out)? And if so, is there a list of 'don't kill' etc.
Any other theories?
thanks.

Run it in a screen session to debug or do an strace on it.
