I can see what you mean, and that process works ok, but what I'm

is a way to view whats already on machine B's Konsole from machine A.
The example was. I'm working on machine B. With the Konsole I run
apt-get
update, then apt-get dist-upgrade. The upgrade runs to completion, and
I'm
left with a lot of text on Konsole. I have a query regarding the
update, but
my email client is on the other machine. If I close Konsole I lose the
text,
unless I save it as a .txt file. What I'm looking to do is keep
machine B's
Konsole open, and be able to access it from machine A, and in this way
can
paste the text from machine B's Konsole, which is now viewable on
machine A,
onto machine A's Kmail composer.
Perhaps I'm asking too much.
Nigel.
As several people have pointed out if you ssh from A to B and then run
you run apt-get the output in the window on B is clearly seen on A.
The only problem is that if the output is more that can fit on the
terminal window from B it is hard to copy the stuff stuck unseen in the
buffer. It can be done but it is tedious. The simplest thing is to have
the output captured in a file and then sftp the file from B to A.
Or either run screen first in the konsole, then you can detatch and
reattach the screen when you ssh in from the other computer. Or allow
remote desktop sharing in kde so you can connect to the remote computer
using VNC..?
