Hi all: I wanted to start a sec process as myself and logoff. I figured this would be a perfect reason to use the detatch option. However detatch also changes the directory to /, and all relative references to files on sec's command line are done with respect to /.
I understand the reason is to allow the filesystem where the user started sec to be unmounted but if you are on a local filesystem it is unlikely to be unmounted unlike an automounted nfs share. Might I suggest a -workingdir option to specify the directory that -detach will change to. (I was originally thinking of -detach[=working directory] but the way options parsing is set up the -workingdir is probably easier.) Risto comments? I could probably generate the patch as well, it should be simple enough to be within my capability. In any case off to get a command line with nohup and all the fd redirection operators set up. -- -- rouilj John Rouillard =========================================================================== My employers don't acknowledge my existence much less my opinions. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.
