Hi all,

I intend to capture packets from a couple of specific devices on the network, but I don't want to leave the SSH console open.
I have launched the processes with nohup, but they are not kept when I log out. I want to capture packets for a day, because there is little traffic, but I want to be able to analyze them and I would be grateful if someone can tell me how to leave the process running after closing the ssh session.

Thank you very much.

  I have finally used a combination of nohup with screen.
