NAME
       ocd - outbound connection daemon used by DDFA software

SYNOPSIS
       board_no] config_file] log_level] port_no]

DESCRIPTION
       The  Outbound  Connection  Daemon  is part of the Data Communications and Terminal Controller (DTC) Device File Access (DDFA) software.	It
       manages the connection and data transfer to the remote terminal server port.  It can be spawned from  the  Dedicated  Port  Parser  or  run
       directly from the shell.

       For performance reasons, does not have a debug mode.  However, a version called with debug facilities is available.

       See ddfa(7) for more information on how to configure the DDFA software and for an explanation of how it works.

       logs important messages and error conditions to

   Options
       recognizes the following options:

	      The board number of a DTC.
				If it is omitted, the port number option must contain the full TCP service port address.  The and options must not
				be used if the IP address given in the option is the IP address of a port.

				If the option explicitly names a terminal server port, the option is not needed.

	      Specify the name (including the absolute path)
				of the configuration file used to profile the terminal server port.  If this option is omitted, the default values
				specified  in the default file are used.  If the file specified does not exist, an error message is logged and the
				following values are used (note that the values for and are different from the default values):

	      The absolute or relative path to the device file
				that is linked by the software to the reserved Applications use pseudonym and not the dynamically allocated slave.

	      Specify the logging level.
				It determines the severity of messages sent to The logging levels (and how they relate to system  logging  levels)
				are as follows:

				     Log only LOG_CRIT messages.
				     Log only LOG_CRIT and LOG_ERR messages.
				     Log only LOG_CRIT, LOG_ERR, and LOG_WARNING messages.
				     Log all messages.

				If this option is omitted, the logging level is set to 1.

	      The IP address of the terminal server or the port.

	      A DTC port number or, if the
				option	is  omitted,  the  TCP	port service address that will be used by the software to access the port.  If the
				value is omitted, the value (Telnet) is used by default.

       In order to shutdown every running without restarting them, the following command can be executed:

WARNINGS
       In order to ensure that commands (such as display the correct device file name (that is, the pseudonym), all pseudonyms	should	be  placed
       into the directory If pseudonyms are not specified for placement in this directory, the correct display of device file names with many com-
       mands is not guaranteed.

       In addition, in order to ensure that commands (such as and work correctly, each pseudonym  must	be  unique  in	its  first  17	characters
       (including  the directory prefix If pseudonyms are not unique in their first 17 characters, the correct functioning of many commands is not
       guaranteed.

       Also, in order to reliably handle timing mark negotiations (and ensure that files printing on a printer attached to a terminal server  have
       been  completely  flushed  to  that  printer),  the following line must be added near the end of each printer interface script for printers
       attached to a terminal server:

       The printer interface scripts reside in the directory The line must be added just prior to the final  command  in  each	printer  interface
       script.

       If this line is not added as specified, the printing reliability of printers attached to a terminal server is not guaranteed.
