# aptitude show ttysnoop Monday 29 February 05:31:02 AEDT 2016 -- show ttysnoop Package: ttysnoop State: not installed Version: 0.12d-5 Priority: optional Section: admin Maintainer: Mats Erik Andersson <mats.anders...@gisladisker.se> Architecture: amd64 Uncompressed Size: 100 k Depends: libc6 (>= 2.4) Description: allows you to spy on telnet+serial connections TTYSnoop allows you to snoop on login tty's through another tty-device or pseudo-tty. The snoop-tty becomes a 'clone' of the original tty, redirecting both input and output from/to it. # aptitude show conspy Monday 29 February 05:31:32 AEDT 2016 -- show conspy Package: conspy State: installed Automatically installed: no Version: 1.8-2 Priority: optional Section: admin Maintainer: Russell Stuart <russell-deb...@stuart.id.au> Architecture: amd64 Uncompressed Size: 67.6 k Depends: libc6 (>= 2.2.5), libncurses5 (>= 5.5-5~), libtinfo5 Description: Remote control of Linux virtual consoles Conspy allows a (possibly remote) user to see what is displayed on a Linux virtual console, and send keystrokes to it. It is rather like VNC, but where VNC takes control of a GUI conspy takes control of a text mode virtual console. Unlike VNC, conspy does not require a server to be installed prior to being used.
