HI List, I am running a command in background on Unix(Solaris) by suffixing it with & and in order for this command to run uniterrupted, I am prefixing it with nohup. I want the pid returned by it to be trapped in some file. The command is something like this:--
$ nohup rmiregistry& > abc.out The problem is that it returns the pid on the console but does not redirect it to the file. I have tried this command in many different styles eg:-- $ nohup rmiregistry& 2>abc.out $ nohup rmiregistry& 1>abc.out $ nohup rmiregistry& 0>abc.out and some other stupid combinations but nothing seems to be working Suggest me a solution No PID is coming in the nohup as well. Infact even if i try the command without nohup option this way:-- $ rmiregistry& > abc.out still there is no output in the file. This is probably because the PID returned is not the output of the command, thats why. Please suggest a solution Thanks in advance __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
