Long Shot Question - Solaris 9 / Sudo / TSM Server.


Hi Guys,

this may well be a long shot here but I'm hoping some one else has also come accross this problem.
I have a solaris 9 system, using sudo and IBM TSM server. I have to take away root acccess for the TSM admin, so I'm using Sudo. I have all the commands I need apart from starting TSM itself.
I can start tsm using sudo, but it hangs the session. Either the session has to be quit from or TSM stopped.
I've tried

sudo /path-to-tsm/dsmserv quiet &
sudo "/path-to-tsm/dsmserv quiet &"
sudo -b /path-to-tsm/dsmserv quiet

the normal command run from root is /path-to-tsm/dsmserv quiet &
it throws out a few lines of text then runs into the background releasing the shel so I can carry on with other commands.

Any idea / advise !!!

I'm loosing my hair over this, its got to be simple too I'm sure....

It's unclear for me what the problem is, but you can try:
Code:
nohup sudo -b /path-to-tsm/dsmserv quiet </dev/null >/tmp/dsm.log 2>&1 &
