NAME

       sethost - Emulates a DEC VT100 terminal

SYNOPSIS

       sethost [options] nodename
       Options:
       [-Vh] [-e char]

DESCRIPTION

       sethost emulates a DEC VT100 terminal.

       This application implements the CTERM protocol over DECnet for connecting to a remote DECnet host emulating a DEC VT100 terminal.
       dnlogin is a replacement for sethost with more compatibility features.

OPTIONS

       -e <char>
	      Set the exit character. By default this is ^]. You can specify the exit character as a control character by preceding it with a cir-
	      cumflex eg (^A means control-A) or as a number in decimal (default), octal (starting with a zero), or hexadecimal (preceded by 0x or
	      0X).

       -h -?  Displays help for using the command.

       -V     Show the version of the package that sethost was built with.

EXAMPLES

       Connect to remote VAX host named "mv3100".

	   sethost mv3100

HELPFUL HINTS

       The CTERM specifications available from Digital does not include how to setup VMS terminal characteristics, so the host cannot identify the
       capabilities of the session we are creating. The simplest workaround is to set the terminal capabilities manually upon login  or  including
       the following command in the login.com DCL procedure.

       $ SET TERM/DEC_CRT

NAME

       rmtermd	- Old style DECnet terminal services for Linux

SYNOPSIS

       rmtermd
       [options]
       Options:
       [-dvVh] [-l logtype]

DESCRIPTION

       Allows remote PDP-11 users to connect as a terminal over DECnet.

       This  application  implements the DTERM protocol over DECnet for allowing a remote DECnet host emulating a DEC VT100 terminal to connect to
       Linux.  DTERM is the old OS-dependent network terminal protocol that predates CTERM; it is needed to support access  from  PDP-11  systems,
       which  do  not  support	CTERM.	 Note that this daemon implements the TOPS-20 variant of that protocol; the client at the other end has to
       speak that version.  For example, under DECnet/E (for RSTS/E) you have to use the "unsupported" multi-protocol version of "set host".

       Normally this daemon will be run from dnetd(8) rather than by hand.

OPTIONS

       -l     Set logging options. The following are available:
	      -lm Log to /dev/mono. (only useful if you have my mono monitor driver or mdacon and a second monitor)
	      -le Log to stderr. Use this for debugging or testing combined with -d.
	      -ls Log to syslog(3). This is the default if no options are given.

       -d     Don't fork and run the background. Use this for debugging.

       -v     Verbose. The more of these there are the more verbose rmtermd will be.

       -h -?  Displays help for using the command.

       -V     Show the version of rmtermd.

EXAMPLES

       Starting the rmtermd daemon/Connecting to linux from a PDP-11.

       On Linux:

	  # rmtermd

       On the PDP-11:

	  $ set host pclnx

	  Rmtermd Version 1.0.0
	  DECnet for Linux

	  login:
