There’s a discussion about this, somewhere, maybe github with regard to Terminal, that Jamie already chimed in on. It’s non-trivial, and I don’t think it’s on the near-term todo list. link.cgi is a pretty rudimentary process, it’s one-and-done, that feature would need a refactor to work quite differently to handle a long-running connection.
It should probably be made clear when features can’t work cross-server with link.cgi, so folks aren’t surprised by it or expect it to work.
So this is an compatibility issue between Cloudmin and Virtualmin that results in confusion for users. My vote would be to disable it if in ‘link’ mode through Cloudmin.
The real time stats are valuable yes, but that functionality has been removed if you use Cloudmin this way, so if the ‘old’ way is gone completely, I’d rather remove it to prevent confusion (“my stats are frozen, etc etc”) and if clients want it, use a public IP and set the server up with a domain name. Or just use terminal
Referring back to my initial post, on certain servers (I’ve not verified the stats on other servers, I assume they update), I’m not seeing any stats, for example:

Usermin version

Virtualmin version
