Even if the shell script uses your nohup syntax, if I put in a long dd as a test command then have plink execute the script, it will actually wait for it to complete and even show dd's output! Sending the command to at worked perfectly! jlc _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
