I have sbcl 1.0.7 running remotely on machine A and I initially connected to it from emacs/slime on another machine B. I would like to start an emacs on machine A, and attach to the repl thread that is visible on machine B's emacs/slime repl.

You have to start the swank-side on machine A with :dont-close t, e.g. via setting swank:*dont-close* before calling swank:start-server.

After that, you can also `slime-connect' from an Emacs on A to that process. (You can discover the port you've got to connect via `slime-list-connections' on B.)

I think this should do the trick,
