I have no idea how it could fail to run it in the background, unless perhaps it is stopping because it is asking for tty input. You can fix that with the -n option and/or -f options. Or perhaps it is asking for credentials. You can fix that with public keys and an ssh-agent so it doesn't have to ask. _______________________________________________ users mailing list -- users@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to users-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
