Inquiry:What is the equivalent for the screen command?
 

Dear All
Please be informed that I couldn't find the screen command package for my Debian 3.1 server . I really need it to manage multiple screens just*from one*login session . I tried to update my Debian repository list , as the followings :

#apt-get update
Then I tried to find it for installation , by issuing the followings :
#apt-cache search screen
But no "screen" found . Can you please do me favor and let me know what is the equivalent command that can be used instead of "screen" command on my Debian for managing multiple screens ?
Let me thank you in advance

Sure it's there:

http://archive.debian.net/screen

But why would you run a Sarge server?

Please think seriously about upgrading this to at least Debian 4.0

You have no security support: you have no updates: you are running a
version of Debian that is now well behind the current Debian stable.

If the server is not critical / you have few users using it, consider a
full reinstall of Debian 4.0 or 5.0. [The move from kernel 2.4 to 2.6
was slightly more difficult than usual and there were other major
changes hence the major version bump].

The release notes for 4.0 should tell you how to upgrade: the release
notes for 5.0 tell you how to move from 4.0 -> 5.0

All the best,

AndyC

As Debian 3.1 is no longer supported, I am not sure about the
availability of packages. Can you find and install other packages.
Otherwise you may have to look at the archive
<http://archive.debian.org/debian/README>, or upgrade to a more recent
release.




Then I tried to find it for installation , by issuing the followings :
#apt-cache search screen
But no "screen" found . Can you please do me favor and let me know what
is the equivalent command that can be used instead of "screen" command
on my Debian for managing multiple screens ?


The screen program is available in the package screen, see
<http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=screen>.



Regards

Johan

Thank you for your reply . Please be informed that this Debian 3.1 server is really my DECT server with Asterisk 3.1.14 pre-installed . If I try to upgrade my Debian OS to higher releases , can you please let me know if there will be any inconsistency/incompatibility issue ?

Thank you in advance

Asterisk 1.4.13 ?

Debian 5.0 (Lenny) has a package of 1.4.21.2 .

What do you mean by "DECT server"? What hardware is connected to it?
