I'm sure the answer to this question is incredibly simple and I have

(hence the poor subject).
I want to ssh into a remote machine, start a download (say wget -c
xyz.iso), then close my ssh session, but still maintain the download
while I'm no longer logged into the remote machine.
Can this be done? If so, how?
I find it easiest to use wget with the -b parameter along with nohup as in:
nohup wget -b -c http://blah.blah.com
Thanks Ed and Ronald. That was exactly what I was looking for!
Thanks,
Mike
