Hi.
I restore this thread because i have question on the same theme.
I read that when running command in background with &, after logout it must terminate.
But i often run commands like "bzip .. &", then logout - and they don't terminate and continue to work as many time as they have to.
I want understand why?
Because, i think, i can use this ability in scripts some time and it won't work. May be i have to use nohup instead of & ?

However A is always "Stopped", while B is running correctly. Anybody knows why?
thanks!
