Using the Terminal feature for the remote logon process

For a PPP or SLIP server, if the remote computer you connect to requires that you log on with a terminal-emulation screen, you must configure the script settings for that network connection to use a Terminal logon window. With this logon process, after your connection connects to the remote system, a character-based window displays the logon sequence from the remote computer. You can use this window for logging on to the remote computer. For more information, see Use the Terminal feature to log on to a remote computer. Alternatively, you can automate this manual logon process as described in Automating the Dial-up Logon Process by Using Switch.inf Scripts.

Some commercial networks present a large menu of available services before you log on. On SLIP servers, typically running on UNIX, you may go through an extensive sequence of commands that updates files, collects data about you, or configures your SLIP connection during your logon process. On a newer PPP server, you may be prompted for only your user name and password before you are given a connection.

Note

  • If the remote computer is a remote access server running Windows, you do not need to use a Terminal logon window. Instead, the logon process is completely automated for you.
