I don't use CDE. But if your program is getting a SIGHUP, there is a way to find out why. You can use sigaction() to install a signal handler. A signal handler installed by sigaction will be called with a pointer to a siginfo structure. The handler can examine the values in the structure to figure out why the signal arrived. Of particular interest are si_pid (sending process ID) and si_uid (sending user ID). The handler could log this info. It could even run "ps" for the pid in question and log that. Then after it exits, you will know exactly why.

And a process can always call getpgrp() to get its own process group id. And it can call getsid() to get the process group id of its session leader.
