Consider the following scenario. I am on machine A.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] $ ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED] $ nohup command1 &
[EMAIL PROTECTED] $ nohup command2 &

Now if I use the jobs command, I can display the background jobs on this
shell.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] $ jobs

[1] Running  nohup command1 &
[2] Running  nohup command2 &

Now if I exit the shell on machineB and come back to machineA.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] $ exit
[EMAIL PROTECTED] $

After some time (say after a day or so) I log back in to machineB.

[EMAIL PROTECTED] $ ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED] $ jobs

then there is no output even though the jobs are being run in the
background. Is there any way to get information about all the jobs being
run in the background that belong to a particular user? In other words is
there any way to display information about [1],[2] jobs in the new shell?

Currently I am using a round about way to achieve this

[EMAIL PROTECTED] $ ps aex | grep nohup | gvim -

Is there any better, more elegant solution for this problem?

thanks
