Does Dathorn allow use of screen via ssh? When I try to run screen after sshing, I get the error "Cannot access '/dev/pts/0': No such file or directory".
If I need this kind of functionality, I just open several console prompts. But I seldom need that, usually while moving websites over here. How does screen help comparing with the multiple ssh logins or it's just a matter of taste?
the biggest advantage is that screen prevents your ssh connection from being dropped suddenly. If a connection closes, the 'session' detaches and I can ssh in and reattach it again. Could prevent nasty issues like corrupted files and such.
