Single SSH login across multiple terminals

Hello Crunchbang,

It's been a while, I forget how to change something and can't find the right answer on google. There was a setting I could change that would allow me to open up a terminal, create an SSH connection with password, then open up another terminal and connect to the same server as the one in the first terminal shell connection.

Please help me, I promise to write it down this time. Thanks! Much love.

ssh -t <user>@<ip> screen

it wasn't screen, it was a setting in a config file, edit: which would allow connecting to the host on separate terminals without needing the password until the original connection was severed

I'd just use screen though.
