This is what I do
nohup sqlplus /nolog @script > script.log 2>&1
The script1 look like the following:
start local_var -- This has the user_name and password defined in it
connect &&username/&&password
...
local_var.sql
define user_name=app_owner
define password =pass123
Hope it helps.
Cheers
Surjit
