Not that I know, but I would be interested to know if it is possible. Does the process (port build for example) still run? When it happens to me, the processes in the ttyp usually are killed, except when run with 'nohup'. > Example: I'm rebuilding some ports and while this is done the ADSL line is > disconnected.

I use 'screen' (it's in ports: misc/screen) nowadays to work around the problems when a connection is dropped and I'm very happy with it: http://www.gnu.org/software/screen/ . I'm using it right now to do a buildworld in a KDE session; if KDE or X would crash, the buildworld does not stop and I can simply reconnect :-). Karel.
