telnet session - show input to another user/session

[Carsten Cimander_1]

Hi all,

As I sometimes log onto a partner's system
I want to grant him that I do nothing
without giving him notice.

So I want him to follow my inputs.
I open a telnet or ssh session from remote
to his system. The partner should be able
tp follow my input on his local system.

How to "share" the telnet-session?

Thanks for your tips.

Regards,
Carsten

Carsten,

Maybe you can use script. You need the devicefile of the terminal of your colleque.
(output tty or who)

For instance
script /dev/ttyp6 or

script /dev/pts/ta
Script started, file is /dev/pts/ta
(do everything your colleque needs to see)
$ date
Tue Jan 29 15:11:29 MET 2002
$ time

real 0m0.00s
user 0m0.00s
sys 0m0.00s
$ exit
Script done, file is /dev/pts/ta

Try and test it (also see man script)

Success
