This does not seem to be entirely accurate (and it would also be very obnoxious, especially for use over Tor, if a dropped connection meant starting from scratch). The servers do allow reconnects, and data is preserved (presumably in encrypted form).
- bdcravens 4y agoconnection != session
- ghostly_s 4y agoIt does with ssh... maintaining a persistent session thru reconnect requires a wrapper utility like mosh.
- egberts1 4y agoOr tmux.
- sureglymop 4y agoPretty sure that mosh uses ssh initially and then the communication is over udp. Not sure if an ssh connection is even maintained then. Tmux I guess you would run locally and put in the background when you want to work on something else. But then your ssh connection could still drop or tmux could crash on your local machine.
- tony-allan 4y agoI had a play and created a file and logged in and out and the file persisted as did my ability to look at the /onion directory via Tor after the ssh session was stopped.
- tony-allan 4y agoThe next morning, after being logged out overnight, I ssh'ed into the server and it had been reset (and my saved files removed). Credentials still worked but a fresh instance.
