The server programs RTELNT.SAV and RCNCT.SAV can be used to
login to an RT-11 system:
(1) The system must be sysgened for multiterminal
support (3 local DL/DZ/DH lines are required)
(2) Assuming the console is on line 0, cross connect
lines 1 and 2 (at the same baud rate ...)
(3) At boot up define the logical directories and
startup the TCPIP.SAV server and RTELNT.SAV
The RTELNT.CML command line file should be something
like:
-rctpyz 2 1 PAS:paswrd.fil 15 600 or
-r -c 2 -t 1 -p PAS:paswrd.fil -y 15 -z 600
Terms: -r at connection termination, restart
-c 2 RTELNT.SAV connects to line 2
-t 1 Console will connect to line 1
-p PAS:paswrd.fil
-y 15 15 second login timeout
-z 600 600 second inactivity timeout
(4) Use the keyboard set command to
change the console terminal:
set TT: consol=1
Be sure you have tested the password file (by configuring
first for incoming FTP service). Once the console is set you
cannot change it back to your local terminal from your local
terminal.
When you log into RT through the TELNET link you are at the
console! If you terminate the running TCPIP or RTELNT jobs
while you are logged in, your connection will terminate and the
RT system must be rebooted (the consol is connected to line 1
going to line 2 going nowhere).
If you change the console connection while logged in then you
will not get any response from the RT system (although the
TCP/IP connection will still be active).
You must terminate the TELNET connection from your connection
terminal. (However that is accomplished from the remote sys-
tem.) If you are connected from another RT system running the
TCPIP package, then use CTRL-A X and request connection termina-
tion.
