Yes.

Just to expand on that a little... Screen will allow multiple concurrent 
secure-shell connections to your IOC console, as well as logging all 
console activities to files. It assumes your console is accessible 
through a Linux host somehow, but this seems probable, from the 
description you gave initially. As far as I know, most Linux 
distributions either include Gnu screen as standard fare, or provide it 
as a package for use with the standard package manager. At TRIUMF, we 
use it heavily, and have a Perl/Tk application to aid in starting new 
sessions and selecting existing session for attachment.
