... Software Installation
The FTP and Telnet Package components should be installed as
described in the following sections. The ethernet device
handler specific to your particular hardware configuration must
be copied to the RT-11 system device. The logical name assign-
ments used by the package are:
1. TCP: Location of programs and configuration file.
2. ENx: Selected device driver units 0-3.
The FTP and Telnet Package for Small Systems executables are
found on logical disk SSDSK1.DSK. The required device handlers
are found on the logical disk DVRDSK.DSK.
Configurations The FTP and Telnet package may be installed in one of the following three configurations: 1) Install All Files on System Device All command files and programs are copied directly to your system disk. Assign SY: to TCP:. This configuration installs 9 files (and 320 blocks) on your system disk. 2) Install Only Command Files on System Device Create a seperate logical disk (TCP:) for the programs and copy only the command files to the system directory. This will install 3 files (and 3 blocks) on your system device. 3) Install All Files on a Logical Disk Create a seperate logical disk (TCP:) for the package and copy all the files to this disk.

Configuration File
Each of the programs, FTPSB, TLNTSB, and CNCTSB, requires the
configuration file TCPIP.CFG which defines all the parameters
required to configure the programs for network access. Note
that TCP/IP services, tasks, and session logging are commented
out as these are not support.

# Example host file for TCP/IP server
#
# This file is free form
# Separators are any char <32, 'space' and '='
# Comments are preceeded by #

# The form is keyword=value for each parameter.
# The first set of parameters refer to the whole program's defaults.

# Each entry contains the taskid number, timer interval in seconds
# (zero means not an automatically started task), and the name
# of the command file to initiate the service. These tasks donot
# have to be related to TCPIP programs, however a TCPIP program
# can use the TASKCLASS to start a specific task. The selected
# task will be scheduled by TCPIP and only one (1) copy of the
# the task will be allowed to run. Additional requests to start
# the task will be queued as a single request to rerun the task
# at the completion of the currently executing task.

# The machine named "default" contains the fields which are
# automatically filled in for later hosts
#

# = TCP window size
# MIN = 128, DEFAULT = 512, MAX = 512
# larger isn't always better
#
# Below this line, most of the communication parameters are obtained
# from the "default" host entry.

# If during TCPIP startup you get the error Sreadhosts() error 2,
# you probably have exceeded the memory limits of the machine.
#
# (1) reduce the number of machine definitions above
# (2) or donot use session logging
#
# Sesion logging and Debugging should not be simultaneously enabled.
#
The program needs to know the ip address(number) of the
machine to which it is connecting. If the TCPIP.CFG file does
not contain the named machines' ip number then it will make a
request to the specified name server to obtain the machines ip
number. If a name server is not specified then the connection
cannot be made using the machines name (place the machines name
and ip address in the configuration file). If the ip address is
given as the input to the client program rather than the name
then a domain name lookup is not required.
Installation in Detail
Complete the hardware installation as described in the
chapter titled Hardware Installation.
Under RT-11 or TSX-Plus the most convenient installation is:
1. Copy the .SAV files from the distribution disk SMLTCP.DSK to
SY:
2. Copy the command files from the distribution disk SMLTCP.DSK
to SY:
1. RT-11 (SJ/SB/FB): files *.CSM
2. RT-11 (XB/XM/ZB/ZM): files *.CXM
3. TSX-Plus: files *.CTM
3. Copy the configuration file TCPIP.CFG from the distribution
disk SMLTCP.DSK to SY:.
4. Copy the UCL command file from the distribution disk
SMLTCP.DSK to SY:
1. RT-11 (SJ/SB/FB): file RTUCL.INS
2. RT-11 (XB/XM/ZB/ZM): file XMUCL.INS
3. TSX-Plus: file TSXUCL.INS
5. Copy the system specific TCPIP.___ file to SY:TCPIP.RUN.
1. RT-11 (SJ/SB/FB): file TCPIP.RT
2. RT-11 (XB/XM/ZB/ZM): file TCPIP.XM
3. TSX-Plus: file TCPIP.TSX
6. Install UCL commands:
1. RT-11 (SJ/SB/FB): Type '$@RTUCL.INS'
2. RT-11 (XB/XM/ZB/ZM): Type '$@XMUCL.INS'
3. TSX-Plus: Installation is in TCPIP.TSX
7. Verify that your system was sysgened for timer support and
no error logging. If not, then perform a system generation
or rebuild the device handlers to your requirements.
8. Copy and rename the appropriate device handler from the log-
ical disks DVDSK1.DSK or DVDSK2.DSK to SY:. (See the
chapter on device handlers for more information on selecting
the appropriate device handler.)
9. Install the handler using the 'install' command or reboot
the system and verify the handler was installed.
10. Edit the file SY:TCPIP.RUN to assign TCP:, load the
appropriate device handler (RT-11 only) and assign units 0-3
of the device handler to EN0-3.
11. Edit the file SY:TCPIP.CFG for your configuration. Your
machine's name and IP address are required and the specifi-
cation of a name server and gateway may be required for your
network.
12. Type '$@SY:TCPIP.RUN' to load the handler. (You may wish
to add the line '$@SY:TCPIP.RUN' to your RT-11 startup com-
mand file or your TSX-Plus LINEx.TSX file.)
13. Attempt to FTP or Telnet to a local computer using only the
IP number of that computer. (verifies connections are pos-
sible)
14. Attempt to FTP or Telnet to a local computer using the
computer's name. The computer's name and IP address must
not be in the TCPIP.CFG file. (verifies that the name
server entry is correct)
15. Attempt to FTP or Telnet to a machine not on your local
network. If you use the machine's name then the name server
must be working or the machine's name and IP number must be
in the configurataion file TCPIP.CFG. (verifies that the
gateway entry is correct)
