The documentation calls for redirecting both standard output and standard
error. I think the command line shown above only redirects standard error. The
redirections we normally use are as follows:

>/dev/null 2>&1

In addition, I have seen a high incidence of inexplicable failures when using
nohup in environments other than AIX. I finally gave up on using nohup in such
environments. I use 'at now' instead.
