Problems with spawning windows

[Jason Mitchell <jmitchel%bigjar.com@localhost>]

Hello,

    I'm having trouble with a set of scripts that launch different 
windows, running scripts that launch other windows. I made the following 
three simpler scripts as a test case. Here's what happens written out, 
just in case it helps someone follow along (actual scripts are below).

    testwin.sh opens an xterm and has the xterm run testwin2.sh. 
testwin2.sh then runs testwin3.sh which opens another xterm running 
rinetd.sh

    The problem is when testwin2.sh finishes the windows it spawned 
close as well. However, if I just run testwin2.sh from the command line 
this doesn't happen.

Obviously, I'm missing something here. What am I doing wrong? Just to be 
complete, I'm running this in a virtual X windows setup using Xvnc from 
TigerVNC. All of the applications are running from an embedded ram disk.

Thanks!

Jason M.
