remote shell question

["Chris Mason" <chris@net.ai>]

Is there any way to SSH or telnet into an account, start a command line
program such as an ftp session, get the download going, then log out and
leave the process happeneing. I would like to be able to start downloading
then close down the workstation from which I SSHed, and come back the next
day to find the task complete.
