I posted this question once earlier, but received no replies. As the
problem still exists for me, I'll try just one more time. Thanks in advance.
Here's the original:
Is there any way to recalim control of a login or process from which you've
been (perhaps unexpectedly) separated? It is not uncommon for the dialup
connection that I use to access my Iris to fail. The connection is to
someone else's machine, from which I telnet to the Iris. Usually when the
connection is severed, I can just log back in and kill the leftovers. But,
sometimes it would be nice to be able to get back in control of them and
end them in a civilized way. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
