one screen per server

Posted by: Anonymous Coward on December 04, 2004 01:07 AM
I have an OpenBSD box in both our campuses, each of which has one screen session per server that I admin. I name each session when I create it, and tell it to automatically SSH into that server when I create a new window:
screen -S servername -s servername.ssh
where servername.ssh is just a script to SSH into that server.
This way, I can run screen --list and see which servers I have active sessions on, and then just
screen -r servername to reconnect.
