Network Telnet behavior
Hi there, I've an stupid question. If I make a telnet to a server from my computer and then execute a command that starts an application (on the server), when I disconnect, the application stops running, which is pretty obvious. Is it possible to add a flag at the end of the command so when I cut the telnet session the application on the server continues running..???

I hope I made myself clear with my basic english.

Hi,





Simply put the ambersand sign "&" at the end of the command, i.e.:

ls -l &



This will put the job into the background.
