Actually let me try to be a bit more helpful... nut not much though :-) Did you write the code for the fork();
Can you modify it? Read the fork, exec and clone man pages. This might help you a bit understand the behaviour. If so just call exec from the forked process... this will create a new process instead of a child one. Then call exit() in your forked process.
