DESCRIPTION

       These  utilities  initiate  a  multiple window connection to a set of specified hosts. There are three variations: one that is specifically
       intended for remote console access while the others provide remote logins using rlogin, ssh, or telnet.

       Each utility starts a host window for each of the specified hosts, as well as a common window. Input directed into  the	common	window	is
       sent to each of these host windows.

       This  tool  is  useful  for system administration tasks that require similar things to be done on each of several hosts. For tasks that are
       identical on all hosts, typing in the common window sends the characters to all of the hosts. However, the host windows are normal terminal
       windows	so they can also be used one at a time (by moving the mouse into one of them and typing directly into it) to perform host specific
       tasks.

       The common window also allows the user to select which hosts receive the characters typed in the common window, so only the specified hosts
       will receive input.

       These utilities use entries in two different databases, /etc/clusters and /etc/serialports.

   cconsole
       The  cconsole  command  provides remote console access through the telnet command. All normal telnet escape characters are available to the
       user. See the telnet(1) man page for a complete listing of telnet escape characters. Because there are a few telnet escapes that  are  com-
       monly used, they are provided here as well. The escape character is Control-], specified below as ^].

       ^] quit		   Quit the session. Analogous to ~. in tip and rlogin.

       ^] send brk	   Send  a break signal to the remote system. This is what is needed to halt the Sun CPU. The normal key board sequence is
			   "L1-A."

   crlogin
       The crlogin utility provides remote login through the rlogin command to multiple cluster nodes.

   cssh
       The cssh utility establishes Secure Shell connections directly to the cluster nodes through the ssh command.

   ctelnet
       The ctelnet utility is similar to cconsole except that the connection is directly over the Internet.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       -l username    Specifies the user name for the ssh connection. This option is passed to the cconsole, crlogin, or  cssh	utility  when  the
		      utility is launched from the CCP. The ctelnet utility ignores this option.

		      If the -l option is not specified, the user name that launched the CCP is effective.

       -p ssh-port    Specifies  the  Secure Shell port number to use. This option is passed to the cssh utility when the utility is launched from
		      the CCP. The cconsole, crlogin, and ctelnet utilities ignore this option,

		      If the -p option is not specified, the default port number 22 is used for secure connections.

       -s	      Specifies using Secure Shell connections to node consoles instead of telnet  connections.  This  option  is  passed  to  the
		      cconsole utility when the utility is launched from the CCP. The crlogin, cssh, and ctelnet utilities ignore this option.

		      If the -s option is not specified, the cconsole utility uses telnet connections to the consoles.

		      To override the -s option, deselect the Use SSH checkbox in the Options menu of the cconsole graphical user interface (GUI).
