nohup -p PID
I haven't yet come across an implementation of nohup which knows a -p option.
But then I don't know every flavour of Unix.
Usually nohup is only executed on startup of a command given as argument but cannot attach to a running process.
If you are running your job control in Bash then you could use the built-in disown command like
Code:
$ echo $0
bash
$ sleep 600 &
[1] 5764
$ disown -h %1

Now you should be able to logout without the shell sending a SIGHUP to your disowned sleep job.

May I refer you to man bash:
Code:
       disown [-ar] [-h] [jobspec ...]
              Without options, each jobspec  is  removed  from  the  table  of
              active  jobs.   If  the  -h option is given, each jobspec is not
              removed from the table, but is marked so that SIGHUP is not sent
              to  the  job  if  the shell receives a SIGHUP.  If no jobspec is
              present, and neither the -a nor the -r option is  supplied,  the
              current  job  is used.  If no jobspec is supplied, the -a option
              means to remove or mark all jobs; the -r option without  a  job‐
              spec  argument  restricts operation to running jobs.  The return
              value is 0 unless a jobspec does not specify a valid job.

rahul if you observe carefully in AIX type man page for nohup its written clearly..
you can't say whats written in man page is wrong..
you might be doing it wrong.. somethigs are done only by experts..Smilie

[1] + Stopped (SIGTSTP) sleep 100
ps
PID TTY TIME CMD
598132 pts/3 0:00 sleep 100
2060484 pts/3 0:00 -ksh
2347048 pts/3 0:00 ps
2449582 pts/3 0:00 -ksh

As remarked recently in another thread, nohup -p appears to be an AIX-only thing.
