Default Solaris 9 mdsstart attaches to terminal

We have all the patches on SunOS 5.9 and Provider-1 installs fine. If it starts on boot everything is hunky-dory. However, if we need to stop and start the mds with mdsstart/mdsstop, the processes attach to the terminal pts/N or console.

The end result is that when the user logs out of the machine, the process gets killed. Normally, services should start with a '?' in the place of the terminal. In this case, it doesn't. We checked the scripts and environment variables - everything looks ok.

Are we doing something wrong or how can we fix this?
