How about doing it via a shell script?
As below:
#!/bin/ksh
sleep 30
sqlplus -s << END
user/pass
@long.sql
exit
END
Start script in 'nohup' mode, log off while it is sleeping.
SQL will then starts with no tty attahced to it and does what it supposed to
do.

Erik,
In my experience a nohup will die with your terminal session. Best bet
would be to use 'at'.

I am going to be executing a long running job this weekend from home. I am
going to VPN into the corp network and telnet to the server. I am affraid of
loosing my telnet terminal session and the job dying mid way through. The
plan is to use 'nohup sqlplus system/***** @long_running.sql'. Has anyone
used this or run into issues using it? Every time I assume something will
'just work', IT DOESNT!
Thanks
Erik
