I've play a bit with screen but I don't think it will work for my problem so let me restate it. Lets say I wanted to buildworld, build a port, cvsup, portupgrade, etc. but forgot to do it before I left for school, work, or wherever so I ssh into my box and do #foobar& etc. and then exit, then when I get back home I want to see what happened. I guess it just goes to show that there's always a solution to a problem, you just have to look at it from another angle (can you thing of any other solutions btw?):
From work:# nohup foobar >& foobar.log &
Back home: # tail -f foobar.log

Thanks....
# nohup foobar >& foobar.log &
^^^^ ^^^Why'd you do it like that, how is it diffrent from this way?:
# nohup foobar > foobar.log &
