The script I use to run this program in the background follows (cshell script):

at now << EOF
uas-client.pl
EOF

exit
[download]

For some reason this script wont run in the background of the linux server. typing  ps -u uas in the terminal after running the cshell the client script doesnt show up. The idea here is to have an autonomous client that will continuously try to connect to the localhost so that when the data is availible it does not require the user to manually start the script. Any ideas?
