At office I'm setting up a new gentoo 2004.3 postgresql server from scratch . Now, at home having a VPN connection under win xp via PUTTY I'm "emerging the system" but this implies very long VPN sessions with interruptions due sometime to network failure. To avoi this I have tried to launch a myexec file of with this 2 lines:
#myexec export http_proxy=http://proxy.mycom:8080 emerge -bn system #endfile With the following command ./myexec & To no avail. I see emerge running on the dispplay all the same so I think that if I close the VPN session it would stop emerge also. Is there any way of keeping a job executing a long emerge session going on after having closed the VPN session? Ciao Vittorio -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
