Funny! It works OK for me. Are you sure that the process is able to
create the nohup.out file? I wrote a tiny shellscript like:

# filename: procesito
#!/bin/sh
while true
do
  ls -l
done

As userxx (owner of the script and current directory) typed the
following: 

$ nohup procesito &

and then logged-out. Loggin-in again and ps -a showed me procesito
running and nohup.out increasing in size.

BTW, "procesito" stands for little process in Spanish.
