It sounds like a badly-written app which requires a controlling terminal to work properly. I've run into a few of those before. If you don't care about primal causes, you can always run the program from inside screen. That would give it a controlling terminal, to which you could (dis|re)connect at will. -- Unabashedly littering the information superhighway with detritus like this for over 15 years now. _______________________________________________ RLUG mailing list [email protected] http://lists.rlug.org/mailman/listinfo/rlug
