starting background processes from admin files

[Jean-Pierre Sevigny]

Hi,

I am not sure if this is a CVS issue, or a Unix issue, but here it is.

I would like to start some processes in the background for some operations,
have something like
ALL prog %{s}&
in the loginfo file, for example.

I want to do that so i dont hang the cvs commands for the users, when i dont
need to,
for the time prog runs.

When i'm running CVS locally, it is fine, the cvs command finishes and the
"prog"
runs in background. In client/server mode, the cvs client has to wait for
"prog"
to finish. Any idea why, and how can i have the client not waiting for the
background process to finish ?

Thanks,
Jean-Pierre Sevigny
