Abstract:
Disconnection protection for command-line remote terminal may be provided. A command-line remote terminal session may be created at the first computer for interacting with the second computer. A command entered in the command-line remote terminal session may be intercepted. A disconnect protection may be injected into the command. The disconnect protection may comprise at least redirecting output from the command into a session log file. The output of the command may be tracked to simulate the command as an active process in the command-line remote terminal session at the first computer. Responsive to detecting a disconnect in the remote network connection with the second computer, the remote network connection with the second computer may be automatically recovered by restarting the remote network connection with the second computer based on information stored in the session log file at a point of the disconnect.
