Matthieu NICAISE mentioned screen which should work. Another way would be to activate the script through cron: 1. create a script that does a few pings and e-mails the results. 2. activate the script with cron as often as needed. Once this is setup, you can quit your ssh access to the remote server. Contact me offlist if you need more information.
