It's a feature of some shells to display the job nr and the PID of a started background process.
But the display goes to the terminal, not into the nohup.out.
The nohup.out only gets the output of the ./startserver.sh command.
The PID of the (last) background command can be written to a logfile, for example

This is a show stopper and only if I could get a feasible solution.
1. if the PID goes to startserver.sh instead of nohup.out ... that's is fine but why no logging in the nohup.out ?? We need logging to the nohup.out irrespective of whether it is the startserver.sh or the nohup.out that gets the PID.
2. We need to get the pid of the process inorder to kill it automatically thus we cannot enforce everyone starting our servers to echo $! >>logfile
They may start as they like. Hence fuser of the file name was a feasible option to get the pid and kill it using automation.
Does the remote user have a csh/tcsh login shell?
Then nohup is a builtin - it does not use nohup.out file.
Use /usr/bin/nohup or \nohup to skip a builtin or alias.

Hello,

I have a netstat command set up with awk to show which ports my box is listening on. The -p switch shows the PID/program name, too, which ordinarily would be very handy. However, several entries show up as just "-" for the program name which makes it hard to identify what is keeping the port open.... (2 Replies)
