Closing ssh when process run on remote
Hi!

I currently run a very long script (two hour left...) on a remote computer through a ssh session. I wonder whats happend if I close the ssh session, or even, the terminal. Is the script running on remote will stop?

Thanks for your answers,

Tp

I depends on what your script does with a HUP signal. If you havn't specifically added signal traps, I'd say that closing the ssh session would kill the script at the other end.

If you want to prevent this in the future, you can start your script using 'nohup script.sh' to protect it from those signals.
