Thanks to everyone for the quick response.
Problem
nohup /some/dir/command args >/dev/null &
would die after logout
Solution:
It had something to do with the shell. After we switched to ksh things
worked perfectly (as everyone indicated).
Other suggestions that may also work:
(command </dev/null >/nev/null 2>&1 &)
nohup sh scriptname
use cron
use at
Thanks to all those who helped!!
