I too had problems executing the $ZF command. But my issue rested in the fact I was opening up a program with a user interface (Adobe Reader). While no user interaction was required, Adobe still needed a place to load. So when I executed the $ZF from a local terminal, I had no problem. But when I did so from a telnet session, I could not get it to work because I ultimately realized the network account designated in the Configuration Manager had to be logged into (or at least have a session on) the server so Adobe had an "area" to load itself into. Otherwise, while the process itself would launch nothing would correctly work because Adobe could not effectively be started. I too would have to kill the process via Task Manager or tskill.
I don't think your problem is quite the same since you mentioned the program you were launching had a command-line interface. But like Timur intimated, make sure the designated Cache' network account has the necessary privileges to execute your program.
