I have posted this problem before and saw many 'me too' reponses and thought that this problem is everywhere. After your and Kostik's posts and decided to make a clean test. Turned off jails and all custom kernel sysctls. Entered shell and run this cript - it printed: heck done! I have rerun all configs and started jails - still works. Then i remembered that i have always run this script fro midnight commander. Started mc Pressed ENTER on this script and it got suspended. Now i am lost, whose problem is this? su's or mc's? or both? If i remove su from the script and run simply system('echo heck'); from mc it work fine. With su it gets suspended. -- Rrgards, Artem
