 |
|
Hi all,
I have setup ssh+screen+rtorrent on my home box for remote access.
On my office box, I'm trying to create a one liner command so I can both connect via ssh and launch screen immediately. I tried the below but I always get the same message: "Must be connected to a terminal."
| Code: | # ssh -l timothee mydomain.homedns.org screen -R
Must be connected to a terminal.
|
I also tried building a startup script like this:
| Code: | #!/bin/bash
ssh -l timothee mydomain.homedns.org <<EOF
screen -R
EOF
|
but this only produces:
| Code: | Pseudo-terminal will not be allocated because stdin is not a terminal.
Must be connected to a terminal.
|
Is what I want to do possible?
Thanks for any advice!
Tim. |

trary screen-based programs on a remote machine, which can be
very useful, e.g. when implementing menu services. Multiple -t
options force tty allocation, even if ssh has no local tty. |
