    How do i start a daemon process using ssh?

    I have a script on machine A which has an infinite loop. This script has to be a daemon.
    I need to start this daemon from machine B.
    There shouldnt be any stdout,stderr associations between two machines..
    how do i achieve it?

    some of this seems unnecessary.
    why do you need to start it from another machine, can't you cron it or have it start with the system?
