Backgroud Jobs from init.d

[elluk]

Hello everyone.

I am starting a background job from a startup script in init.d
I'm using "sudo -u" to start the job as a non pivilaged user as opposed to root.
Something like so:
sudo -u testuser /usr/local/bin/command parameters &

The background job works fine. But I would like to bring the process back to the terminal as I would usually do using "fg".

But the "jobs" command does not show my process. I have tried running "jobs" as root and as "testuser", but it does not list anything.

So... how do I show this job (or any others like it)?
And how do I return it to the foreground\console?

THANK YOU!!!

You have to somehow make input/output i/O of the program to a tty device. That's quite difficult.
