This is a repost from alt.msdos.programmer.  I got one piece of advice, that
did not solve the problem.  For this reason, I am reposting this in the 
hope that more readers will see it (and reply?).  Sorry if you already
read this on the alt group, but I did not get any answers there.

I have been unsucessful in spawning a copy of comand.com that reads the 
autoexec.bat file.  The shell starts up prompts for the date+time  (same 
as if it couldn't find an autoexec, then refuses to exit (the other effect 
of /p)  I have tried entering command /p from both command.com and  mssh,
and they did read the autoexec.bat file.  For some reason, it only refuses
to do so for my programs.  What am I doing wrong?

The details:
DOS 3.2
640K RAM
language:  Turbo C++ and Turbo Assenbler (the routine is written in TASM)

function used: 4B  (sub 0)  (Load and execute subtask)

contents of DOS call 4Bh barameter block  
(this is from memory, they may not be in the right order)
command line  (ptr to [02,'/','p',0Dh]
env NULL  (use current)
FCB(1+2) NULL

PS, no flames about why I would want to spawn a permanant shell.  I did create 
a backdoor  :)
