I had a brainstorm but it (like so many others...) may not work. I was
going to download the RH 7.1 iso's, but we've got a pretty slow connection
so I wanted to do it at night when our traffic was low. I can get into my
computers at work from home, so what I'd like to do is start downloading
each of the 4 files, each on a different virtual terminal. Is there a way
to control the virtual terms from home, like if I'm telnetted in? ( I
know...use ssh..., but it's the same problem) I can telnet into my box and
start the download, but when I log out won't it drop the ftp connection?
Alternately, could I start an ftp download and put it in the background
some way so I could start 3 more downloads? Is there a way to keep the
download running after I disconnect from my telnet session? Or, is there a
better way to do it that I don't know about yet? Maybe I'll just have to
buy the cd's...
Thanks,
Kerry Miller
