The linux folks seem to have gone on a campaign to make many syscalls available as shell commands - this being one of them. > Peter, > I am not able to find "util-linux-ng" under my ports. Given that that's a linux package name, this isn't surprising. And if you did find such a package, there's a fair chance it would depend on the linux emulation software. Running a command in a new session has a number of implications, and without knowing exactly which of those are important for your application, it's hard to say exactly what you might do to get the desired result. > Anyways, I have found something called "detach", which eventually worked for > me. Glad you found something that works. Knowing that, I'd recommend trying the "daemon" command, as it's in the base instead of ports - if that matters to you. <mike -- Mike Meyer <m...@mired.org> http://www.mired.org/consulting.html Independent Software developer/SCM consultant, email for more information.
