Under Connection Method, select Network.
Under Network Connection Type, select Rlogin.
The options are:
TCP port |
When connecting to a host via Rlogin, most hosts wait for an incoming connection on TCP Port 513. If your host uses a different port, type that number here. |
Parity |
This setting determines whether a parity bit is generated for each character transmitted. Parity is used to detect errors in data transmission; the number preceding the slash indicates the number of data bits sent. To use the multinational character set or 8-bit controls, Parity must be set to one of the values that offers 8-bit controls. If your communications link generates parity, and you set Parity to 8/None, multinational characters appear on your screen. In this case, setParity to either8/Even or 8/Odd. |
Baud |
Select the rate at which InfoConnect transmits and receives data through the network connection. |
Terminal type |
To override the default terminal, select or type a value here. In general, you control the following characteristics when you change terminal types:
If you're having trouble running a host application, the negotiation between InfoConnect and the host might be wrong. If you enter a terminal type that the host does not recognize, InfoConnect reverts to a list of default values until one is found that the host supports. |
Timeout |
Specify the number of milliseconds InfoConnect should attempt to make a connection before timing out. The maximum value is 65535. The timeout period begins after host name resolution has taken place. This means an additional delay, usually a few seconds beyond the value specified. When this is set to 0 (the default), InfoConnect timeout behavior is determined by your Windows operating system. |
Session limits |
Select the maximum number of sessions you want to allow for a Telnet connection. |
Close on disconnect |
Select to close your session document when you disconnect from the host. |
