[users@httpd] How to apache not wait for completion of background job

I have a shell cgi script. It invokes another shell script via rsh in
background
(rsh -n <machine <command> &)
on another machine. Idea is to start something which takes long and
quit.
It seems that Apache 2.2.8 waits before returning output message to
browser
till the background job is finished on remote machine. Anyway to
overcome this?
