Take a look at the 'screen' package.
Once you've installed it, the important commands are
Ctrl-A to create a new screen
Ctrl-Space to cycle all available screen
Ctrl-d to detach a session
So here's how you do it:
Start screen
run the command you want to monitor
Ctrl-d to detach.
log off
.
.
log on to the new terminal you want to monitor things from
run 'screen -r'
.. and there you go, looking at what you just started running.
NB Using Ctrl-A to start 2,3,4,5 or more screens is really, _really_
useful! Take a look at it.
