do shell hanging

Subject: do shell hanging

Hello,


I am trying to run the following shell script like this


    set s to "sudo /Library/StartupItems/Nleac/Nleac start"
    set r to do shell script s with administrator privileges

The process is started but Applescript justs hangs.


If I run the same command in the terminal I get a result. If while the Applescript is hung, I go to the terminal and run

    sudo /Library/StartupItems/Nleac/Nleac stop

which stops the process I just started, then the Applescript continues on and finally returns the result.

Does anybody have any ideas about what is happening?

Thanks

Todd
