Hi Marcin, Thanks! I'm running the bash shell. And for some reason it also looks like bash does understand 'exec'.
[root@beta:~] #echo $SHELL /bin/bash [root@beta:~] #exec Why it suddenly looses that understanding when it runs the cassandra start script, I have no clue. I even tried changing the script from sh to bash (!#/bin/sh to !#/bin/bash). No luck.
