Ok...this prompts a question...

I'm trying to run a DBMS_PIPE listener in SunOs 4.1.3 and csh. It's a home-grown program which uses Pro*C. It doesn't matter if I run the program with 'nohup <command> &' or just '<command> &', it disconnects when I do. The Oracle Pipe connection stays alive, but it cannot do anything since it's driving process is (apparently) dead.

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks
