You need to redirect stdin, stdout, and stderr from/to appropriate places if you don't want that. You might also want to run it with 'nohup' so that signals are ignored and it keeps running if you disconnect. --
the problem is that i have to execute this script on a remote server so if i exec it in such way and then close my connection, most probably the script will be closed too
