HP UX IPFilter Software manual Login Screen

You will need to copy the appropriate GUI client (in the gui_clients subdirectory) to your Windows or Linux desktop system and unpack it. Then, start the GUI from your desktop using the following executable file. Invoke it from a shell prompt or double-click it in a folder:

•On Windows: Caliper.exe

•On Linux: Caliper

At startup, the GUI prompts you for the login information needed to connect it to the remote HP Caliper server on the Integrity system where you want to make measurements. See Figure 12.

Figure 12 Login Screen

To connect to the remote system:

1.Enter the appropriate information for the Integrity server you want to make measurements on and your username and password on that system. Check the Save password box to save your password in a secure, encrypted form.

2.Make sure that the Caliper Path value is correct for your system.

3.By default, HP Caliper will execute the standard login scripts. If you do not want this to be done or you have a unique set of login scripts to be run, then enter your information in Login Scripts and check or uncheck the Execute Login Scripts box. You can list multiple login scripts, separated by a comma.

4.Select the Login Protocol (SSH or rexec) that you wish to use for the connection. If you are not sure, use the default.

5.Click on OK to connect to the Integrity server.

This information is saved in a login configuration for the next time you run the GUI client. Each login configuration saves:

•The system to log onto

•Your username and (optionally) your password

•Any login scripts that you want executed at login time

•The login protocol

If any of the information is incorrect or if the connection cannot be made for some other reason, you are notified with an error dialog.

You can use the Add/Delete System button to save multiple login configurations.
