Change /usr/contrib/bin/screenrc to "autodetach off"
From the man page
autodetach on|off
Sets whether screen will automatically detach upon hangup,
which saves all your running programs until they are
resumed with a screen -r command. When turned off, a
hangup signal will terminate screen and all the processes
it contains. Autodetach is on by default.
