Good idea. I'll try it. I do need to be more detailed with my original
question though. After further investigation, I found that this script
isn't run locally, unfortunately the job is being run via an rexec from an
MVS batch job that doesn't end because the database comes up (on the RISC
box) and leaves the processes started leaving MVS to believe the job is
still running. The MVS job eventually times out. Not good. So, what
newsgroup should I ask about this one? Any suggestions?
