You can bring "jobs" back to the foreground by various methods examples.. fg %2 bring job 2 to foreground fg imples "fg %1" fg +xxx bring job with PID xxx to foreground the "jobs" command will tell you what jobs you have and their job id the "jobs -l" will tell you the process id as well If you have a job with process id 1234 you can foreground it by fg +1234 jobs are associated with the terminal group, I dont think you can start a job on one terminal/console/telnet session (doubtless someone will correct me on this if I am wrong !) and bring it back on another, and I am not entirely sure how much sense that would make anyway. Read the section on jobs control in the bash(1) manual page, and the stuff in "bash builtins" for more info.
