I am helping a friend of mine configuring his freebsd 6.1 system. But he lives in anothe rpart of the town so we are working through ssh. But because he wants to "learn" by looking over my shoulder at the things I do, he asked me if I knew a tool or a way to make that happen. So basically, if I login through ssh, he wants to sit behind the machine and see what actions I'm doing. And because we talk over skype, we could have this whole interactin going on while I'm configuring his machine. How could I accomplish something like this? Does anyone have an idea? Two tools come to my mind, screen and nxserver but still I don't have a clue how to accomplish this. Hope someone can point me in a good direction.
