Note Submitter: carlp@bioace.net ---- Cant seem to get the following to work: Note: If you start a program using this function and want to leave it running in the background, you have to make sure that the output of that program is redirected to a file or some other output stream or else PHP will hang until the execution of the program ends $i = system("/usr/sbin/inetd 2>&1 > /dev/null &"); However, the php code still hangs after this command, and I have to either stop inetd or kill the web browser to be able to use php anymore. Any ideas, what Im doing wrong???
