nohup process hangs
Hi All,
I tried searching for this, but I have yet to find anything useful. So here goes,
if a script executed from another script with nohup & hangs, does it affect the parent script? Reason I ask, we have a windows box with NFS, and we use it to store some of our files. Currently, I mount the NFS directories, using a script from the command line, after a reboot. I would like to automate this, but typically the windows box is rebooted at the same time, and if the mount gets executed prior to the windows box boot, the script hangs. I know nohup'ed processes ignore hang ups, but what happens if they hang? Any knowledge and/or guidance will be greatly appreciated.

SYNOPSIS
nohup COMMAND [ARG]...
nohup OPTION
DESCRIPTION
Run COMMAND, ignoring hangup signals.
--help display this help and exit
--version
output version information and exit
If standard input is a terminal, redirect it from an unreadable file. If standard output is a terminal, append output to 'nohup.out' if
possible, '$HOME/nohup.out' otherwise. If standard error is a terminal, redirect it to standard output. To save output to FILE, use
'nohup COMMAND > FILE'.
NOTE: your shell may have its own version of nohup, which usually supersedes the version described here. Please refer to your shell's doc-
umentation for details about the options it supports.
