Shell jobs - continue running when shell closed?
How do I make a shell job continue running when I close my shell session or disconnect from the net.Say I log in as 'root' remotely using SecureCRT and start using wget to retreive a 10gb file, or or execute any other command that takes a lot of time and doesn't require user input.
If I get disconnected from the net, or close SecureCRT accidentally or not, the server terminates the job.
I've tried putting the jobs into the background, which gives me the prompt back, however when the shell is closed the job also terminates.
anyway around this?
