Hallo all,
Is there someone out who can tell me how i can start a background process with DCEW?

I want to establish a ssh Tunnel to an imap server behind a firewall with

ssh -fN -L 1430:imapserver:143 user@borderhost.com

the -fN places ssh into the background. I put my public key on the borderhost.com, so that ssh can login without a password.

It works from the command line and i can get mail from the imap host (127.0.0.1:1430 as imap server ;-).

But when invoked by the DCEW widget, the widget stays selected (waiting for the "background".ssh process to finish) and all other hildon buttons are blocked.

When I kill the ssh tunnel process from another ssh session from my pc to the n900, the widget gets deselected and hildon works normally.

Anyone any suggests?
