Actually, I think it depends what shell/shell family you are using.  I
thought all shells automatically nohup'ed something that is run in the
background, but upon a quick view of the csh and ksh man pages, it
looks like this is true for csh et al, but not ksh et al.

So, I surmise that you are using a csh-type shell (including tcsh) on
your linux machine, but a ksh-type shell (including bash) on your
hp-ux machine :-).  And further that the original poster is using a
ksh-type shell.

Also, I think if you put this command itself in a script (regardless
of what shell kind of script it is), it'll work fine without the nohup.
