You can't take over the ssh session, but you can go tandem on a virtual terminal using a program called 'screen'. If your other user starts screen, then ssh, you can join their screen session and see what they see, and type for them. screen -x will join an already attached session. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
