Use screen. It will let you detach from the session, and reattach to it later. It's perfect for this sort of thing. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

That way the command 'command' will run as son of your shell session. When you close your session it will probably die (maybe not, depends on how the software works).

* Sid Arth [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2007-09-25 I want to have rtorrent running in the background once I turn it on via ssh. Is there a way to keep rtorrent running even after I close the session? Nohup, Screen, and VNC (in increasing order of complexity). I have a small introduction to screen at http://research.iiit.ac.in/~masatran/screen/. -- Masatran, R.
