|

Okay,
If you've used minicom, you'll know what I'm talking about, but even if you haven't here's what I'd like to do:
From Work:
I open up a ssh connection to my webserver
I ssh from my webserver to my main box
On my main box I do some stuff (for example emerge -e world)
I disconnect from my webserver
An hour later, once again from work:
I open up a ssh connection to my webserver
I ssh from my webserver to my main box
My main box shows me the same pseudo terminal I was using before, so I can see how the merge is going ect.
I disconnect from my webserver
Later from home, on my main box:
I open up a ssh connection to the same machine
My main box shows me the same pseudo terminal I was using before, so I can see how the merge is going ect.
I can close or leave open that ssh connection
I would also like the ssh pseudo terminal shared so that if I leave it open at home, I can still connect from work without interupting it.
The question is, is this possible? What software do I need? Any help would be appreciated. _________________ rank[0]-=('n'-'d');

It is better to say nothing and have people think your are an idiot,
Than open your mouth and remove all doubt.

screen creates virtual persistent consoles. Basic usage: <Ctrl-a> <d> detaches screen, you can log off now, screen -r restores session (so you can see what is going on), <Ctrl-a> c creates new screen window, <Ctrl-a> n moves to next window, p to previous. <Ctrl-a> a sends ctrl-a to program in window. For rest, consult manual - IMHO screen is the best piece of terminal software ever written for linux. |

Thanks, it works perfectly (using screen -xR for multi-user mode) _________________ rank[0]-=('n'-'d');
