How would I do that exactly? Use the "screen" command. In essence you would ssh to your target machine, issue the screen command, run your command, detach from the command by using the "<CTRL-a>,d" sequence, then exit from the target machine. Later you could ssh to your target machine, issue the "screen -list" to see your detached session(s) and issue the "screen -r <desired-session>" to reattach to the previously running session. See "man screen" for more details. Regards, Mike Klinke
