:( I will have to start all over again, hehehe. I will make sure to start screen next time. and I dont use vi, I use nano because to be honest with you it is easier for me to work with and is available in all redhat/centos versions. (maybe i should learn vi anyhow ;)) Thanks to Steve and Les, On 9/20/06, Les Mikesell <lesmikesell@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:

You can't reconnect to a broken ssh connection, and in fact it should have killed all the processes you were running. However, some editors will save your work when terminated abnormally and let you recover in a different session. For example, if you used vi filename and were disconnected, you could recover later with vi -r filename I don't know anything about nano, though. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell@xxxxxxxxx _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@xxxxxxxxxx http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
