sreen session and scp
 

Hi



I have a number crunching PC on which I login remotely. I modified the .bashrc on the server so that I login into an existing screen session or a new one is created.



If I want to scp a file over to the server, I now get the error that "should be connected to a terminal". How can I modify the .bashrc on the server so that it still logins to a screen session but allows to scp over files.



Tx/Alain

Changing the screen invocation in your .bashrc to something like this
should help:


if [ -n "$PS1" -a "$TERM" != "screen" ]; then
screen -xRR
fi

A: Because it messes up the order in which people normally read text.
Q: Why is top-posting such a bad thing?

Just tested: To get rid of the useless bash instance, exec screen:


if [ -n "$PS1" -a "$TERM" != "screen" ]; then
exec screen -xRR
fi
