My problem is that let's say I have an open terminal window.
The script will send ssh user_a@host_a into that terminal session.
Fine, a new SSH shell will open, connecting me to host_a.
Then the script will send ssh user_b@host_b again into my original terminal
window, not into the freshly opened shell.
Do you think it will be able to cnnect thru the previous SSH session?

I'm a bit confused, so I guess my question itself could be wrong.
