Hi Group,
        
        One of my processes ( a newsgroup binary assembler to be specific ) was
running in the background when I logged out from the controlling tty.
The process is still running and has been 'adopted' by init and is
running with no controlling tty. Is there a way I can attach it to one
now ?

        Usually I use screen to run it inside a virtual session that I share
between work and home, but this time I wasn't using one.

OS: RH 8.0 based, running vanilla 2.4.20
Platform: Intel P4

thanks!
Nair
