    Hi,

    How can I start a server on a remote
    host and disconnect while
    leaving the server running on the remote
    machine?

    I am trying sth like:
    ssh -n -x -l user host start_server.sh
    (I've used ssh-agent and ssh-add to enter
    my passphrase)

    The problem is that this keeps the ssh connection
    open(with or without output from the remote server).
    I would like to use this in a script which goes
    through a list of hosts and starts a server on
    each machine. I do not want to keep the ssh
    connection open or in the background as the list
    of remote hosts is fairly large.
    I am using OpenSSH_3.6.1p2 on Enterprise RedHat Linux
    v.3. This is probably a basic question that may
    have been covered on the list but I could not find
    an answer in the archives.

    Thank you for your help,

    kamen
