I have been beating my head on a wall for two weeks and have googled til my=
 fingers bled.  I am running windows server 2003 with cygwin.  I am attempt=
ing to get a bash script to continue to run in cygwin even after I have log=
ged out.  I have tried several different tactics.  The most recent and clos=
est to success has been using the =93nohup=94 command.  I am opening a cygw=
in bash window and typing the following:
=20
$ nohup mycommand.bash &=20
The script runs in the background but the bash window stays open.  When I l=
og out or try to close the window I executed nohup from, I get the followin=
g error=85=85
=20
$  3 [main] ?  child_copy: cygheap read copy failed, 0x611688E0..0x611706D0=
m dibe 0, windows pid 0, Win32 error 5
1876 [main] bash 5072 child_copy: dll data read copy failed, 0x61102000..0x=
61106BA0, done 0, windows pid 5072, Win32 error 5
=20
The window will stay up for a few minutes and then go away and the script t=
hat was running is now dead.=20=20
=20
I am not an expert by any means so any help regardless of how elementary is=
 appreciated.  I know I am not the first squirrel to try to crack this nut =
so I figured I would toss this out in hopes some =93big brain=94 would take=
 notice and pity.
