problems. Note that size and parity processing will

 

only be performed on input from the PAD to the

 

system.

x3

Optional. This is the X.3 configuration set name for

 

this x29server session. If this entry is included in the

 

/etc/x25/x29hosts file, the configuration name and

 

its set of X.3 parameters must also be specified in the

 

/etc/x25/x3config file. If more than one X.3

 

configuration set with the same name exists in

 

x3config, the first one is used. X.3 parameters are not

 

downloaded unless both the X.3 configuration set name

 

and the parameters are given.

application

Optional. Used with cud to specify the full path name

 

of the application to be launched when the connection

 

is established (maximum 80 characters, no wildcards).

 

See “Launching applications automatically” below for

 

more information.

cud

Optional. Specifies a yes or no condition. Legal values

 

for this field are: enable (or yes), disable (or no). See

 

“Launching applications automatically” below for more

 

information on this.

Launching Applications Automatically

A user-level application can be launched automatically by configuring the application and cud fields in the pad_spt section of the x29hosts file.

The application parameter specifies the name of the user application (or script) to be automatically launched when the connection is established. The cud parameter is used like an on/off switch to enable or disable the use of Call User Data (CUD) instructions.

If you are using a UNIX script, it must contain the character string #!/bin/ksh at the beginning of the first line. If this string is not included, the system will return an error code.

If the application and cud fields do not appear in the pad_spt file, the /bin/login (default) program is automatically launched.
