This is the problem that drives me crazy. I let a script A (a.sh) call script B (b.sh).
I used
In script A it calls B directly, without any redirecting or nohup or background.

Script A:
Script B:
I used
It was "stopped" after 5 minutes but B was running and B finished correctly.

Anybody knows why?

BTW, if I don't use nohup and backgrounding, it's OK. i.e. if I use
directly. Everything is OK. I am totally confused.

In nohup or background it is 'stopped' waiting for the ssh to complete.

In foreground, it just 'waits' for a command (v.g break) from terminal input while waiting for ssh to complete.
