close terminal window, closes IE connection

close terminal window, closes IE connection

Post by stu_iow »

Hi all,

Just setup cumulusMX onto my RPI2.

I connect to it via putty on my windows PC.

All setup, working, when I close my terminal window, I get a message up in internet explorer straight away saying connection closed.

Why is this happening?

I'm stumped.

Cheers,
Stuart

If you close the terminal which is running a program, the program gets closed. You need to use 'screen', or see Jan's excellent script, here - https://cumulus.hosiene.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=13767
