Well, If I didn't misunderstand your scenario, what if you use, for instace >> in order to redirect output of machine B and then copy it to machine A? By scp or whatever. That's to say, using your example above: 'apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade >> foo.txt' Maybe you could use 'screen -RD', which will allow you to see what happened on machine B even if you're not in front of the computer of machine A, or just machine A is not turned on. I supposed you to know how screen works, don't you? Hope that helps. -- Manuel Arostegui Ramirez.
