i use putty to connect to my box, and when i disconnect, it closes the connection. if there is a way to leave a process running and resume the connection, i'd be interested to know this as well. --
can't you just use "&" to keep the process running?
No, but if run the commands:
# screen # apt-get <blah>
Then press the keys: <CTRL-a> d The screen program will detach, but allow the program to complete. You can then reconnect to it later if you want to check up on it by running 'screen -r'
