detaching from ssh sessions within byobu sessions
I'm trying to manage a byobu session on a computer that I've ssh'ed to from within a byobu session on another machine. These are in the same cluster and use the same home directory, and so they share whatever files byobu is using. Maybe this complicates things...
Here's what I do:
ssh foo
* byobu session on foo starts/resumes
ssh bar
* byobu session on bar starts
When I try to detach (C-a C-d, or F6) from the session on bar, it detaches from the one on foo instead. I can terminate the session on bar, but I have to C-d it three times, then it drops me to a real shell on bar, at which point I can log out. I can't open/close/manage windows on bar -- all control keys operations get eaten by foo instead.
Am I doing something wrong here? It seems like control keys should operate on the shallowest byobu session, not the deepest. It would be fantastic if there were a way to move "horizontally" (change windows) and "vertically" (descend through open ssh sessions)... is this possible?
Thanks,
Andy
