Help with avoiding login script delays 1

I want to call an external app from the login script on our Netware 4 server. At the moment I've entered it as :-

if member of "group" then begin
#\\server\application
END

but since it takes 20seconds to run, it delays the login process significantly.

Can I amend the script to let the process run in the background, rather than waiting for completion?

Any help appreciated

Thanks

Alan
 
Replace the # with a @

This will make the application run and the login script will not wait for it to terminate before continuing
