Or - depending on your taste - you might want to install GNU screen

Re: Telnet/SSH question
Okidok, I'll be reading up on those over the weekend 
The original Intention (and it initially looked like it worked) was to Telnet into the
machines, log-on, launch a Program, and log-off again, > with the launched program still
running <.
(basically open-end, until I was to log-in again and Kill the task if needed)

Have you tried launching the task ( For Example /home/atask &) with the & to

Someone already mentioned nohup, but take a look at "Screen" also:
