Lets say, I started a job on a computer, if you must know, portmanager -u , and then left... but I know its sitting there stuck on a config window waiting for someone to press enter... I do not have screen installed on this machine... my question is, can I ssh in, install screen (or not i suppose it wouldnt matter) and bring that process to either screen, or my ssh terminal? i was hoping there would be a way maybe to suspend it, and then bring it to another term. thanks dan -- Dan Sikorsky *Systems Admin/GoldMine Admin* RegionalHelpWanted.com,Inc. & Cupid.com, Inc. 845-471-5200 x220 One Civic Center Plaza, Suite 506 Poughkeepsie, NY 12601 /http://RegionalHelpWanted.com http://Cupid.com/
