Hi Maia,

I can even close my laptop and open it and phenix starts running where 
it was. I can run jobs remotely and log out just fine. Are you sure you 
are running your job like this:
Something like
phenix.refine bla bla bla > refine.log &
 > is for directing the output from the default [usually the terminal] 
to a someplace else, like a log file.
& is for running a job in the background.
