This has some implications for workflow. First, tools like ‘tmux’ and ‘screen’ will no longer work reliably in some cases. In particular, if you have a ‘tmux’ session that you’re using at the University, and you try to connect to it from home (which will have a different IP address), it probably won’t work. As a distinct case, if you have no usage for 24 hours on a host, even on-campus, the “sticky” effect will expire, and trying to connect to your ‘tmux’ session probably won’t work. It’s also worth noting that your ‘tmux’ server won’t be killed--it will just hang around in an orphaned state. If this happens, you can send a ticket to RACS, and we’ll kill it for you.
