Yes, the script did not work for me because as you correctly
anticipated, it didn't detach itself from the terminal. I see the
comments in the linked script about where it detaches from the terminal
and will look at the script that I am using.

I obviously have 3 options now - modify the script I am using, or use
the 1 you referenced (and obviously all the implementation changes) or
the other one that Scott is referencing (and obviously all the
implementation changes).

I'm not adverse to other implementation and I generally look at these
things as the opportunity to learn. The stuff that I am looking at from
projects.puremagic.com uses mysql as the datastore and since I had mysql
running on it, wasn't hard to implement. So I will venture forth into
perl - with teeth clenched, perhaps for the learning experience - thanks
- and will keep you both posted on final/success or retreat to other
script.

Thanks Paul and Scott - you guys truly are gifted

Craig
