How to wget without leaving putty on

[msk19994]

Use screen, then run your desired command(s), hit ctrl + a + d to detach the screen session.
When you want to reatach, do screen -ls, it'll show running screen sessions, then screen -R screenID (replace screenID by the output from screen -ls) and you're done.

I think i messed it up how to get in the screen i tried but new screens keep opening i am confused

[root@ks3093727 ~]# screen -ls
There are screens on:
        7462.1  (Attached)
        20118.1 (Detached)
        6931.1  (Detached)
        20836.20385.7462.1      (Attached)
        20059.1 (Attached)
        19084.1 (Detached)
        20385.7462.1    (Attached)
7 Sockets in /var/run/screen/S-root.

To reatach a screen session, it needs to be detached first. Let's say you want to reatach 7462
First: screen -D 7462 ,this will detach it, then: screen -R 7462 to reatach it.

I would suggest a screen method. Quite reliable method and works like a charm.
