I use the following function to start a remote shell running dtach.

(defun ssh-dtach (host)
  "Open SSH connection to HOST and start dtach session."
  (interactive (list (ssh-host-completing-read)))
  (let ((explicit-shell-file-name "dtach")
        (explicit-dtach-args '("-A" "/tmp/emacs.dtach" "-z"
                               "/bin/bash" "--noediting" "-login"))
        (default-directory (format  "/ssh:%s:" host)))
    (shell (format "*ssh %s*" host))))
