Um, no. There is *no* expectation of a random command surviving loss of its controlling tty (ie logout) unless explcit steps were taken to mitigate it. Such as the command daemonizing itself or ignoring SIGHUP -- either explicitly or via use of nohup (which also gives the added benefit of capturing stdout) '&' in of itself was *never* any sort of guarantee, regardless of foolish expectations to the contrary. - Solomon -- Solomon Peachy pizza at shaftnet dot org Delray Beach, FL ^^ (email/xmpp) ^^ Quidquid latine dictum sit, altum viditur.
