I want to be able to go home and dial into my workstation. I know this is possible by using the SIOMONIT and SIOLOGIN commands. I looked up those sections in the manual, but didn't quite understand what to do or how to approach the problem (I'm new to Apollos and to UNIX system administration). I'm using a Hayes Smartmodem 2400. I can use EMT to get the modem to go into auto-answer mode, but what do I tell DOMAIN (I'm using the Aegis shell)? Any help is appreciated!

Here is a command file we use to set up the SIO line characteristics and start the SIOMONIT and SIOLOGIN programs. SIOMONIT re-creates the SIOLOGIN program after you logout so that there will be a fresh copy the next time you try to login. von ### ### To startup sio server for remote logins on the modem line ### crp -cpo -on //lyell '/com/tctl -line 1 -default -nld 0 -speed 1200 -dtr -insync -sync -echo -cvt_nl -nocts_enable -parity none -bpc 8 -stop 1' crp -cps -on //lyell '//lyell/sys/siologin/siomonit //lyell/sys/node_data/siomonit_line1_file' -n siomonit_line1 voff The "siomonit_file" mentioned in the script above looks something like: -repeat /dev/sio1 -n siologin_line_1 This tells the SIOMONIT program to recreate the SIOMONIT program for SIO line 1 each time it needs a new copy and that the name of the process running the SIOLOGIN program (oops, I just noticed my typo -- that 2nd SIOMONIT should have read SIOLOGIN) should have the name "siologin_line_1". Hope this helps. -- David Krowitz krowitz@richter.mit.edu (18.83.0.109) krowitz%richter@eddie.mit.edu krowitz%richter@athena.mit.edu krowitz%richter.mit.edu@mitvma.bitnet (in order of decreasing preference)

They give you greater security (ability to limit the users of the system and require a dialin password), greater reliability (less hanging, less likely to leave processes around) and they reset the terminal characteristics so the person before you can't die in raw mode and leave you lost. -kee -- ### User Environment, Apollo Computer Inc. ### Public Access ProLine BBS ### ### {mit-eddie,yale}!apollo!nazgul ### nazgul@pro-angmar.cts.com ### ### nazgul@apollo.com ### (617) 641-3722 300/1200/2400 ### I'm not sure which upsets me more; that people are so unwilling to accept responsibility for their own actions, or that they are so eager to regulate everyone else's.
