Sorry for such lame question but ..
When i am connected to server using SSH . How can i fetch process to
background and close ssh session and not kill that process? And how
can i
later connect to server and fetch process from background to console?
All years i have been using "screen" for this.
Why not continue with screen on CentOS?
yum install screen
Screen is certainly the best method to do this that I have found ... is
there a reason why you DON'T want to use screen.
you can use the '&' to put things in the background and use the command
'fg' to bring it to the foreground ... but screen also redirects stdout
and stderr for you, so I would still use it unless there is a specific
problem you are trying to address.
Or if you want a more modern approach - use freenx on the server and the
NX client from www.nomachine.com. This will give you a complete GUI
desktop that you can suspend when you disconnect and you can simply
leave each process running it its own window so it is easy to find.
And - you can run the whole session over an ssh connection mananged by
the client and it is very efficient even when run remotely.
