It seems that my previous response to this question didn't post...  Forgive
me if I'm mistaken.

As mentioned, your problem is the lack of CLI in a detached process because
LOGINOUT hasn't initialized one.  I've experienced the same difficulty when
trying to spawn from a detached process.

To get around this (one solution), try running SYS$SYSTEM:LOGINOUT.EXE with
the detached qualifier, and use a command procedure as the input:

$ Run/detached/input=my.com sys$system:loginout.exe

MY.COM can simply contain " $ RUN MY.PROGRAM " if you want.

By the way, this is how you "run" command procedures detached.

Hope this helps.
