'k, I think we're getting crossed wires here ... first, ssh in is okay, but to 
get teh kind of information taht I believe that Albert wants, you also need to 
run 'remcons' ... but, remcons times out after a period of time (max is 60 
minutes, I believe), so unless it crashes in that time, your 'script' will just 
show you logged out of an idle connection ...
