Hi, again, a strange question: I'd like to know if there is a builtin means to let the csh's (or bash's) prompt show an information if the current dialog session has been opened via SSH from another system. The obvious is: me@sys1:~% ssh me@sys2 me@sys2:~% _ I'd like the second prompt that I've been logged into sys2 by sys1, such as me@sys1>sys2:~% _ or reverse me@sys2<sys1:~% _ or something similar, like the complex form with different user names, such as me@sys1:~% ssh bob@sys2 me@sys1>bob@sys2:~% _ Is this possible with the means given by the shell? I read "man csh", but found nothing that would fit. Maybe it's not possible (because not intended)... -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ...
