Since VMS V5 none default proxies can be used.
I would like to know how I can access a VMS none default proxy
entry from an ultrix system ?
Basically I need to be able to enter a NIL password, I guess in dcp
decnet copy operations from the ultrix to the VMS system.
A command as in :
% dcp filename vmssystem/username/password::'filename' (1)
works fine.But when one wants to access a none default proxy entry on the
VMS system you need to do something like:
% dcp filename vmssystem/username//::'filename' (2)
The problem here is that vms than thinks a connect requests is given
for that user with a password which is empty resulting in 'access
control rejected ...'
% dcp filename vmssystem/username::'filename' (3)
does not work either because then ultrix interactively prompts for
a password.
Pressing return leads to the same situation as in (2).
I can use none default proxy entries between VMS systems as in
$ copy filename vmsystem"username":: (4)
in which username is one of the none default proxy entries granted to me.
So I guess essentialy what I am asking is what is an equivalent kommand
for (4) under ultrix ?
(I am (still) running Ultrix 1.2 but I guess this question is as
relevant for later Ultrix versions)
Thanks for any info
