try these: bash-2.03$ nohup whatever& or bash-2.03$ whatever& [1] 31337 bash-2.03$ set NOHUP bash-2.03$ exit The first tells the shell not to send SIGHUP to that specific process. The second example tells the shell not to send SIGHUP to any background processes.

HI! How do i run a process in background except for using "screen" and "&" syntax? when i type "whatever &" and then exit my shell.. it tells me that the process is SIGHUPED (hangup, whatever..).. seems like it's running after that ok.. but i don't know how to reattach to it. is there another way? i heard about "fork". but man page doesn't say mcuch ;( thanks for help!
