I have a sort-of customer bbs (a captive shell that customers can log into and xfer files,etc), and a lot of the time I would like to pull up an Xterm and see exactly what the customer was doing wrong when they called me for help! I have tried simple things like catting the /dev/ttyd? device to stdout in the xterm, but nothing has worked well yet. I have heard of something along the lines of 'ttysnoop' for Linux, but need something similar for freebsd. Any ideas would be appreciated, Thanks, Troy Curtiss
