how to run a java program as a daemon?

Dear all:
I have a java program which is used as a server.
java -cp MyServer MyServer.Main
But as soon as I exit the putty session, the program also exit automatically.
How can I run this program as a daemon?
Thanks a lot.

Best

Add a '&' at the end of the command.

Slip a 'nohup' in there. So:

$ nohup java -cp MyServer MyServer.Main &
