Hi, I have a script where I want to run tcpdump and then immediately run another command however, tcpdump will cause the shell pause/hang so the following command lines will have no chance to run even if I use &, it doesn't help like [root@ket capture]# tcpdump -i eth0 -w temp & [2] 32076 [root@ket capture]# tcpdump: listening on eth0, link-type EN10MB (Ethernet), capture size 65535 bytes it always switches to foreground even with & are there any solutions for this thanks!
