 Posted: Thu Jan 13, 2005 1:04 pm Post subject: Fault Tolorent connection Protocol |
 |
|
I'm having a problem with one of my connections to a server so my telnet or ssh sessions get disconnected. It's beyond my control to fix the line issue, but I would like to use a protocal that allows me to reconnect and be exactly where I got disconnected from (i.e. if I'm running my app I can go back in again).
Is there some application that will let me do this? I've was thinking of something like VNC but for a CUI not GUI. |

Developers don't have a sense of humour - except in IRC
