Abstract
As described herein, a computer system receives a first indication that an interactive login session is to be established. The first indication includes user credentials for establishing the interactive login session. The computer system then establishes the interactive login session using the received user credentials. The interactive login session includes a data transfer endpoint for receiving data from other sessions. The computer system receives a second indication that a child session is to be established in parallel to the established interactive login session. The child session is configured to direct input and output data through a loopback connection to the data transfer endpoint of the interactive login session. The computer system also establishes the child session using the received user credentials. The child session then transfers at least a portion of data to the data transfer endpoint of the interactive login session using the loopback connection.
