You want to use something like screen, read up on the docs (basic guide here http://www.mattcutts.com/blog/a-quick-tutorial-on-screen/). It allows you to 'resume' an ssh session and let you run scripts in the background. (Sorry for the vague answer, stuck at work on my phone)

I use Screen on my Raspberry Pi, it does just what you need.

Install Screen, then type 'screen' to get to the prompt. Next start your miner, you can now disconnect putty and when you re-connect run 'screen -r -d' to get back to the screen.

You can also start off more 'screens' by pressing 'Ctrl-A' and then 'C'. Switch between them using 'Ctrl-A' and then 'N'.

If your miner starts automatically ignore the next line...

start the miner, ok you can see it working, close putty.

Then next time you log in through putty type "screen -r" to see what's already running.

I have a raspberry pi and for me it works with this:

pi@new-host ~/$ sudo -i

pi@new-host ~/# cd ~pi/cgminer

pi@new-host ~pi/cgminer/ # nohup ./cgminer -- ....
