Hi Colin, 

This is what works for me..

,----
| 
|  username1 logs into host:  
|  start  screen              
|  Control-a : multiuser on   
|  Control-a : acladd username2
|                              
|  second user logs into same host:  
|  screen -x username1/              
| 
`----

I have also had to chmod 755 /var/run/screen and I think 
chmod 4755 /usr/bin/screen, but this was to get it working under Debian,
YMMV
