Using screen for Shared Console Access
Based on http://www.linux.com/article.pl?sid=06/08/14/1945249
To share access with another person, the screen tool can be used.
Log in to the machine where you want to share a console
user1$ screen -S SessionName
SessionName can be any easy string.
Ctrl-a :multiuser on
Ctrl-a :acladd otherLoginAccount
As the second user, access the screen session
user2$ screen -x username/session
At this point, both user1 and user2 have full control of the session, allowing either of them to steer the session.
user2 can leave the session with Ctrl-a d
user1 can close the session by typing exit at the shell prompt.
