Re: [Nolug] Amazon EC2 and ssh

It sounds like it's kicking off a "screen" terminal. With screen you
have the ability to
mirror a session. I don't have access to an ec2 session, but my guess
is they're using screen.
With the default screen you have multiple independent sessions but maybe
amazon's custom terminal won't allow that?
