How to move a running process to background (UNIX)

Viewed 46598

I have a terminal connected to an external machine through ssh and have a process running in it. Is it possible move the execution to the background, so that I can close the ssh connection without the need to kill it? If so how?

You can as well use the "screen" command which will keep running with processes inside it once you have detached from it.
