Consider the following scenario. I am on machine A.

[1] Running nohup command1 &
[2] Running nohup command2 &
Now if I exit the shell on machineB and come back to machineA.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] $ exit
[EMAIL PROTECTED] $
After some time (say after a day or so) I log back in to machineB.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] $ ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED] $ jobs
then there is no output even though the jobs are being run in the
background.
That is to be expected, since `jobs' is a shell builtin and lists
backgrounded jobs running in that shell alone.
Is there any way to get information about all the jobs being
run in the background that belong to a particular user? In other words is
there any way to display information about [1],[2] jobs in the new shell?
Currently I am using a round about way to achieve this
[EMAIL PROTECTED] $ ps aex | grep nohup | gvim -
Is there any better, more elegant solution for this problem?
I use `pgrep nohup' to find processes containing 'nohup' in the command,
or `ps x -u <username>' to find processes belonging to a certain user.
thanks
