Description
We have lots of mosh-server's on linerva that probably have no clients still around, and will never be connected to. We should figure out a good way to discourage them from accumulating. Fixing the garbage collection half of https://github.com/keithw/mosh/issues/12 might be part of this.
Techniques / possible components:
- installing an attachandrun script that we tell people to use, and having it do some sort of setup
- kill long-idle mosh sessions (upstream changes may have a role to play here, as might just having root run a bunch of "kill" commands every once in a while...)
- giving mosh sessions some session identifier and auto-killing any current servers with that session ID when connecting
- yelling at people with lots of mosh sessions

- Status changed from new to closed
- Resolution set to fixed
mosh now prints a loud blue warning about each of your other detached Mosh sessions on the same server:
Mosh: You have a detached Mosh session on this server (mosh [30111]).
which is probably enough to encourage this problem to go away.
