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 IND control file TELNET.COM starts the program:
.sets cmdlin "-hb "+"'p1' 'p2' 'p3' 'p4' 'p5' 'p6'"
.open sy:tcpfun.com
.data r sy:vbgexe.sav
.data TCP:telnet.sav
.data 'cmdlin'
.close
$@sy:tcpfun
Telnet Server Program
RTELNT is a server program for a remote TELNET session into
RT-11. The program startup options are:
RTELNT [?] [-hmp filespec] [-certvyz] [parameters]
? List the Help Text and Exit RTELNT
c i Connection Line i is attached to Terminal Line j
e Enable Monitoring of all Transactions
h Specify the Help Filespec
m Specify the Message Filespec
p Specify the Password Filespec
r Restart RTELNT after Disconnect
t j Terminal Line j is attached to Connection 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:
.sets cmdlin "-rpyz PAS:paswrd.fil 15 600 ...
... "+"'p1' 'p2' 'p3' 'p4'"
.open sy:tcpfun.com
.data r sy:vbgexe.sav
.data TCP:rtelnt.sav
.data 'cmdlin'
.close
$@sy:tcpfun
The program is normally started as a system job by the TCPIP.RUN
command file. When started as a foreground or system job the
program gets the command line arguments from the file
TCP:RTELNT.CML:
-r -p PAS:paswrd.fil -y 15 -z 600
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.
Connect Client Program
The CNCT program allows the user to initiate a connection to a
remote RT-11/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 IND control file CNCT.COM starts the program:
.sets cmdlin "-hb "+"'p1' 'p2' 'p3' 'p4' 'p5' 'p6'"
.open sy:tcpfun.com
.data r sy:vbgexe.sav
