Assuming that you have a program running in the foreground  press ctrl-Z  then    1    Stopped                 myprogram   disown -h  1   bg 1  1   myprogram  amp    logout   If there is only one job  then you don t need to specify the job number  Just use disown -h and bg   Explanation of the above steps   You press ctrl-Z  The system suspends the running program  displays a job number and a  Stopped  message and returns you to a bash prompt    You type the disown -h  1 command  here  I ve used a 1  but you d use the job number that was displayed in the Stopped message  which marks the job so it ignores the SIGHUP signal  it will not be stopped by logging out     Next  type the bg command using the same job number  this resumes the running of the program in the background and a message is displayed confirming that    You can now log out and it will continue running
