Is there any way to get the lockscreen command to display the hostname
of the machine? I'd prefer if it could be in the titlebar of the
terminal, but anywhere would be nice.
My problem is I will many times have a gnome-terminal open with 5-10
sessions open to different machines. If I have screen set to
automatically idle to lockscreen, it blanks the titlebar and only shows
the username when prompting for a password. With many different hosts
all locked, I have to remember which tab is which host or keep unlocking
screens until I find the one I want.
I know you can have screen use an external locking program, but I use
screen on many machines I don't have permission to install programs on.
Is there a standard terminal locking program that is found on most Linux
distributions by default?
