All,

Please help me find the solutions, I have wrote the script (called PARENT)
that have to call other script (called CHILD) using "nohup" and out the
child script to background job as following:

-------------------- Begin of PARENT script -----------------------
nohup ./child.sh &
-------------------- End of PARENT script -------------------------

-------------------- Begin of CHILD script ------------------------
command_or_script_here
-------------------------------------------------------------------

The error message will shown as, "nohup: cannot open/create nohup.out". But
this won't error if we run under the root account (like sudo -u root
.....).

Hope someone ever found the problem like this.

Thanks all,

sam.
