How to make a batch file to start program and close the old window?

["Arch Willingham" <arch@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I made a Linux (FC7) batch file that starts a terminal server session. The batch file (called termserv.sh) contains these lines:

------------------
#!/bin/bash
#######
rdesktop -P -f -u billybob our.computer.com -r printer:"printer4=HP Officejet 5600 series"
------------------

The kicker is is that the black terminal window stays open. Is there some command in the batch file that, in essence, just starts/runs the other process and then lets the back box close?

Thanks!
