Telnet Client Program

   The  TELNET  program allows the user to initiate a connection
to a remote host for a terminal session.   The  startup  options
for TELNET are:  

  TELNET destination [?] [-hp]
        ?               List the Help Text and Exit TELNET
        h               List the Help Text and Open Connection
        p  filename     Specify the Password Filespec


The  destination host specification may be the host name or host
ip number.  If the connection is to be made to an alternate port
then follow the name/ip with the port number (decimal).  

   The  TELNET  program  supports the following command line op-
tions which are activated by the META character 'control A':  

        M->C    open capture file
        M->D    close capture file
        M->F    FTP [internet address]
        M->H    this help screen
        M->I    type my internet address
        M->K    erase character
        M->O    abort output
        M->Q    are you there?
        M->R    toggle <CR> follow character
        M->S    skip to end of buffer
        M->T    toggle backspace/delete
        M->U    erase line
        M->X    close connection
        M->Y    interrupt process
        M->@    send a true null character

         ^?      abort Telnet session

   The startup command file TELNET.COM follows:  

        run/single TCP:telnet
        -hbp PAS:/paswrd.dsk/paswrd.fil ^1 ^2 ^3 ^4 ^5 ^6

Telnet Server Program

   RTELNT  is  a  server program for remote TELNET sessions into
TSX-Plus.  The program startup options are:  

  RTELNT [?] [-hmp filespec] [-acelqrtvyz] [parameters]
        ?       List the Help Text and Exit RTELNT
        a       Attach to Service
        c  i    CL Line i is cross connected to TSX Line j
        e       Enable Monitoring of all Transactions
        h       Specify the Help Filespec
        l  n    Number of CL/TSX line pairs
        m       Specify the Message Filespec
        p       Specify the Password Filespec
        q  n    Specify an Alternate Connection Port
        r       Restart RTELNT after Disconnect
        t  j    TSX Line j is cross connected to CL Line i
        v       Verbose Mode
        y  s    Login Timeout in seconds
        z  s    Inactivity Timeout in seconds


The  program  may  be started interactively (for diagnostic pur-
poses) by the command file RTELNT.COM:  

        run/single TCP:rtelnt
        -ctlpyz 0 3 1 PAS:/paswrd.dsk/paswrd.fil 15 600 ...
                ... ^1 ^2 ^3 ^4 ^5 ^6


The program is normally invoked by the TCPIP network server pro-
gram by the command file RTELNT.SRV:  

        deassign
        dismount ld0:
        dismount ld1:
        dismount ld2:
        dismount ld3:
        dismount ld4:
        dismount ld5:
        dismount ld6:
        dismount ld7:
        assign sy: wf:
        mount ld6: dl1:paswrd.dsk
        assign ld6: PAS:
        mount ld7: dl1:tsxtcp.dsk
        assign ld7: TCP:
        run/single TCP:rtelnt
        -actlpyz 0 3 1 PAS:paswrd.fil 15 600


The  service entry in the TCP/IP configuration file reflects the
default RTELNT port of 23.  If an alternate  port  is  specified
for  RTELNT  using the '-q' option then the TCP/IP configuration
file must be changed to match the port selection.  A server pro-
gram  may  be  configured to respond to multiple TCP/IP ports by
creating a service specification entry /  service  command  file
pair for each additional port.  


The  RTELNT help and message files are RTELNT.HLP and RTELNT.MSG
respectively.  The h or m options may be used if these files are
not  on the TCP:  device.  These files are created by the system
manager and are not required.

Telnet Port Server Program

   RPTLNT  is a server program that provides a mechanism to con-
nect the 'CONSOLE' port of a LSI/PDP computer system to the net-
work.  

   The  program  runs on an independent networked computer which
provides the service connection to the 'CONSOLE' port of an  at-
tached computer system through a network TELNET connection.  

   The  program  supports  the generation of a 'BREAK' which en-
ables the user to enter ODT on most LSI and some  PDP  machines.
The default 'break' key is ^E.  

   The program startup options are:  

  RPTLNT [?] [-hmp filespec] [-aceklqrtvyz] [parameters]
        ?       List the Help Text and Exit RPTLNT
        a       Attach to Service
        c  i    CL line number
        e       Enable Monitoring of all Transactions
        h       Specify the Help Filespec
        k  c    Break Character
        l  n    Number of CL lines to scan
        m       Specify the Message Filespec
        p       Specify the Password Filespec
        q  n    Specify the Connection Port
        r       Restart RPTLNT after Disconnect
        t  j    Terminal line parameters
        v       Verbose Mode
        y  s    Login Timeout in seconds
        z  s    Inactivity Timeout in seconds


The terminal line parameters are defined as follows:  

   code  - (O+P+L+SSSS) - (OPLxSSSS)
 
   SSSS - baud rate code (decimal)
         + 0     50
         + 1     75
         + 2     110
         + 3     134.5
         + 4     150
         + 5     300
         + 6     600
         + 7     1200
         + 8     1800

         +14     9600
         +15     19200
 
         note: not all controllers support all
               baud rate values, check device
               documentation.
 
   L -   +  0 for 7-Bit
     -   + 32 for 8-Bit
 
   P -   +  0 for no parity
     -   + 64 for parity
 
   O -   +  0 even parity (when P = 1)
     -   +128 odd  parity (when P = 1)


The  program  may  be started interactively (for diagnostic pur-
poses) by the command file RPTLNT.COM:  

       run/single TCP:rptlnt
       -rctqpmyz 1 14 1173 PAS:paswrd.fil ...
               ... TCP:rptlnt.msg 15 600 ^1 ^2 ^3 ^4 ^5 ^6


The program is normally invoked by the TCPIP network server pro-
gram by the command file RPTLNT.SRV:  

        deassign
        dismount ld0:
        dismount ld1:
        dismount ld2:
        dismount ld3:

        assign ld6: PAS:
        mount ld7: dl1:tsxtcp.dsk
        assign ld7: TCP:
        run/single TCP:rptlnt
        -actqpmyz 1 14 1173 PAS:paswrd.fil TCP:rptlnt.msg 15 600


The  RPTLNT help and message files are RPTLNT.HLP and RPTLNT.MSG
respectively.  The h or m options may be used if these files are
not  on the TCP:  device.  These files are created by the system
manager and are not required.  

   For  services  which  are  automatically started by the TCPIP
server the 'service=' entry in the TCPIP.CFG file  must  specify
the same port number as contained in the .SRV startup file.  The
number of sessions must be 1.  Additional ports may be specified
using separate .SRV startup files.

Connect Client Program

The  CNCT  program allows the user to initiate a connection to a
remote TSX-Plus host for a terminal session.   This  program  is
the  TELNET program stripped of all TELNET negotiations and uses
a non standard TCP port (27).  The startup options for CNCT are: 

CNCT destination [?] [-hp]
        ?               List the Help Text and Exit CNCT
        h               List the Help Text and Open Connection
        p   filename    Specify the Password Filespec


The  destination host specification may be the host name or host
ip number.  If the connection is to be made to an alternate port
then follow the name/ip with the port number (decimal).  

   The  CNCT program supports the following command line options
which are activated by the META character 'control A':  

        M->C    open capture file
        M->D    close capture file
        M->F    FTP [internet address]
        M->H    this help screen
        M->I    type my internet address
        M->O    abort output
        M->Q    are you there?
        M->S    skip to end of buffer
        M->X    close connection
        M->Y    interrupt process

         ^?      abort CNCT session


The startup command file CNCT.COM follows:  

        run/single TCP:cnct
        -hbp PAS:/paswrd.dsk/paswrd.fil ^1 ^2 ^3 ^4 ^5 ^6
