Hello all!

I have installed BitTorrent-4.2.2 on my 3.9-box. With this i would like to
start file sharing on a console, logout, login later and reattach to the
console of the BitTorrent-4.2.2 session. AFAIK this is done in most
Linux-distros using the command screen, but how can I do it in BSD?

Any help appreciated

Hi!


How about using screen?

Kind regards,

Hannah.

Well, you could use "screen" ;-)

It's in the ports (/usr/ports/misc/screen) or you could add it
with pkg_add.

You've installed BitTorrent-4.2.2. Easiest way is to also install
screen and use that (since from your post it seems that you already
know it).

Might I suggest to upgrade your machine in the mean time ? You're
running 3.9 while 4.2 is on the brink of being released.

Cheers,

Paul 'WEiRD' de Weerd

Can't you just install screen?

pkg_add -iv screen

??

pkg_add screen

Eek. Upgrade. :-)

With screen? ;-)

It could be as simple as `sudo pkg_add -i screen` if you've set the
PKG_PATH environment variable.

HTH and good luck... Nico
