    Launching a connection independent program via SSH

    Ok,

    Trying to launch my Tekkit server from command line, however whenever I close the SSH connection the server goes down. My host does have a web CP which is basically a graphical SSH, but I find it rather unreliable and it doesn't display the console view very well.
    Does anyone know of a way to launch the minecraft server process from SSH command line without it being connection dependent?

    OS: CentOS 6
    Java: Java 7
    Tekkit: Tekkit 3.1.2
    Max RAM allocation: 1725MB

    Moving to Minecraft where you'll get much more appropriate answers

    Haha lol, I already moved it out of minecraft, because it's likely someone has encountered a similar issue when using SSH.

    Use the 'screen' tool.

    Sweet, thanks :-)
    Never used that option before.

    You could also try 'nohup command &' This will run the process in the background and prevent it from being closed on exit.
