Screen, or the more modern tmux, is awesome for not disconnecting - we use it 
during upgrades or long-running processes in the evenings when it's possible 
that the dreaded windows patches will decide to install just as you're 
finishing a 4-hour process.  It's also convenient in day-to-day use to have 
"virtual" tabs that you can flip between in one-session.  I disconnect at work, 
go home and fire up the VPN, and then "screen -r" reconnects all my sessions at 
exactly the same point I left them.

Or use the "screen" command. It sticks a layer between your network session and 
the command you're running specifically so you can do that sort of thing.

I've never really used it so I can't give you any hints but I know that's what 
it's meant for.

Cheers,
