It still shows up on the controlling terminal.

Maybe I was not very clear (and have no clue how to make it more clear, 
let's try:

AAAAAAAA                                         BBBBBBBBBB
A      A                                         B        B
A      ACCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCB        B
A      A                                         B        B
AAAAAAAA                                         BBBBBBBBBB


I'm sitting in front of A, a normal workstation, my workstation.
B is a workstation without keyboard, without mouse, just power, network 
and screen - the kiosk display. B is up. B contains a handful of stuff 
to be useful as a kiosk. Screen-based stuff.

Now I can ssh from A, my workstation, into B.
Anything I run on B will run on B, but the output will be seen on A, my 
workstation. What I want, however, is to redirect the output to the 
screen attached to B, the kiosk screen.

Or, for you to simulate this, you ssh into another workstation. Then you 
issue a ls. The thing I'm looking for, is for the output to show up *on 
that workstation*. Not on the pseudo-term that you created by logging on 
to that other station.

Somewhat clear (I hope so)
