I know you fixed it, but if it was run using screen, when you reconnect you can also use:
% screen -ls
To list all of your screen sessions. It will then give you the name of the session to reattach it.
Topic: I lost bitcoind in a ssh screen.. help? (Read 1250 times)
How do I go about properly closing bitcoind without corrupting the blockchain or worse?
If you have RPC enabled, ssh to the box, then write: /full/path/to/bitcoind stop
(try ‘bitcoind help’ for full help.)
Cheers,
Worked a charm, thank you!

So I was running bitcoind through an SSH screen on ubuntu 11.04.
The connection terminates randomly after long periods of inactivity.
Before I disconnected once, I had a running ./bitcoind screen open...
Now when I re-connect I cannot seem to find it, but bitcoind is still running.
