Starting IDL on UNIX in the background (rc script) [message #7758]

For several reasons we are still using
IDL version 3.6.1c (hp-ux hp_pa).

The application works, and we have no plan/time to move to v4.

Our problem is that the command

/disk/idl/bin/lmgrd -c /disk/idl/license.dat &

doesn't work (in the rc script or not).

We get a error message like:
[1] + Stopped(tty output)

It works with:

/disk/idl/bin/lmgrd -c /disk/idl/license.dat
(no '&')

It was not a problem until now. We were 'manually' starting idl.
But now we need to put this code in our rc script (in /sbin/rc4.d on
hpux 10.01).

If we leave the &, idl doesn't start. If we remove the '&', idl starts
but then the workstation doesn't complete its reboot.

Any suggestions ?

Thierry
