Yes, but i want the started daemon to become unassociated to the terminal from
which it is started. But in Ada the main task waits until all other tasks have
terminated so the daemon is always associated with the controlling terminal
from which the daemon was started. I want a daemon with no controlling
terminal. How do i do this in Ada?

That i did understand. The problem is not how to distribute the duties to
tasks but to become undependent from the controlling terminal.
