DU Guys,
I've had this problem before ( about a year ago):
I startup some processes which are supposed to start up and run in the background "forever".
The script (csh) which starts these processes&. Since there is no conrolling terminal when cron runs
this script, it causes an error, and I get the following message in my email from cron:
"Warning: no access to tty; thus no job control in this shell..."
I've tried "nohup'ing it from my script, but that doesn't work.
What's the trick here with cron running a script which starts background jobs so they don't exit along with cron?
Thanks.
P.S.: Running DU 4.0B on AlphaServer 2100. The processes are compiled C binaries.
