    giftd and its background process...

    Ok, let see this situation:
    1. I start the giftd daemon process and close the xterm window:
      Code:
      [$] giftd&
      
      [$] logout
    2. Start Apollon.
    3. Search and download what I want.
    4. Somebody starts to "steal" some information from me.

      Code:
      Uploading at 10TBP...
    5. I quit from Apollon while this body is still getting information from me.

    At this point:

    What happened with the uploading process? Is it running or is it down?
    I mean, I close down the client (Apollon) but not the server (giftd) so I guess the uploading is still running, right?

    I mean, do I have to wait until the uploading is finished to quit from Apollon or the uploading is still running just like the daemon?

    gift is always uploading and downloading if the daemon is running..the frontend doesn't matter.
