Question ./agent for Backup Exec

Does anyone know how to run " ./agent.be & " in the background? I need to keep it running so that Backup Exec can see it. When I log out as root is shuts down the agent. This just started happening after I upgraded my Veritas drivers on my Windows 2000 server. That is my backup server.


Hope you can help. I would love an answer today, I have to get a good backup tonight.

Thank you...Smilie
