I was recently introduced to ssh'ing recently. I had never used this before and was suprised at how easy it was to set up.
So when I came upon this article on GNU Screen I did some further reading.

http://www.gnu.org/software/screen/
This seems like a pretty good tutorial on screen.

Whilst the articl itself was interesting several of the comment were of equal interest.
To join a screen that is already attached, use:
screen -x screenid
You can get the screen ID number using list:
[root@gigan ~]# screen -list
There is a screen on:
29878.pts-6.gigan (Attached)
screen -x 29878.pts-6.gigan
Will attach you to that screen. Both users have control so be careful.
I use this when training or reviewing staff.
There is also BYOBU an extra for screen that adds extra functionality.

Screen is available for most distros but I have only included the links for Arch.
Happy ssh'ing.
