Hi Folks, We are using a DECstation 5000 running utlrix 4.0. We also are using DECnet. Is there a way to do something like a proxy login from a Vax using DECnet? Right now, I use the command from my VAX: submit/remote buck"jrb password"::"/usr/jrb/decwrite" to start a job on the ultrix system. I would like to eliminate the username and password string in that command by having a proxy login on the ultrix host. I've looked at the manuals, to no avail. Any ideas? Thanks, Jim Bresee jrb@idx.com

I dunno nothing about the submit/remote issue, but the general mechanism for controlling access on the Ultrix side is the /etc/dnet_proxy file. Listing a node::user -> login translation in this file bypasses the normal ultrix "login:" security and I'd assume it would also work for other DECnet mediated forms of remote access. To execute jobs/commands on VMS from an Ultrix system, there is a sample "tell" command distributed with the DECnet stuff and a corresponding batch file for the VMS side. Other possibilities are possible using the underlying DECnet object capabilities. Also, I read in one of the rags about a new DEC product that was supposed to provide VMS style queueing on Ultrix systems so that VMS types could use the RISC systems for remote job submission. -- George Robbins - now working for, uucp: {uunet|pyramid|rutgers}!cbmvax!grr but no way officially representing: domain: grr@cbmvax.commodore.com Commodore, Engineering Department phone: 215-431-9349 (only by moonlite)

On ULTRIX systems, the -S option submits output files to the shell and creates a log file in the log-in directory that has the name filename.log, where filename is the name of the specified output file. Files you submit this way goto SYS$BATCH. Roland -- Roland J.

DECnet-Ultrix is an extra-cost option. See your DEC sales people, and bring $$$. Mike Heidt

Of course, this can be a logical name set in your LOGIN.COM to point to another queue.
