It turns out that killing tip (using killall on the terminal server) does not disturb the ssh session. Both the ssh connection from workstation to terminal server and the su to root needed to run tip survive. I should apologize for not testing this sooner, it was a very easy experiment. If you think of useful variations please indicate them. The "invalid characters in banner" message still intrigue me. Might it be possible for output from tip to ssh inadvertently contain a ~. sequence in a direction that makes ssh or sshd disconnect? It does appear that what looks like console-to-terminal-server traffic is sometimes reflected back to the console as input, but only when tip is being started and not every time at that. Some help from the comp.sys.raspberry-pi newsgroup suggested trying journalctl -u ssh on the RPiOS workstation. It reports ssh server activity, essentially sshd startups at boot, but not client activity. I'll keep looking. Thanks for reading, and all your help! bob prohaska
