If I do the following: dbclient [EMAIL PROTECTED] "sleep 10& echo hello"
It should return right after printing hello, but it doesn't. It waits until the child process exits. This is a known, longstanding but in OpenSSH on Linux. It doesn't do this on OpenBSD (the OpenSSH developers insist that it must therefore be a Linux bug, but the Linux developers I talked to wondered what they were drinking, if I recall correctly from when I asked in 2001.) An xterm won't do this, telnet won't do this... Just OpenSSH on Linux (not OpenBSD). And now dropbear. Is dropbear intentionally copying this bug? Rob -- Never bet against the cheap plastic solution.
