Adding a Remote User to the User Table

Users for terminal server applications are configured as login users.

Step 1 - Add the user to the User Table

Type the following command:

add user <name> password <password>

Step 2 - Configure the user

You must specify a login service for each user. Specifying a host for each user is optional if you have either a port default or a global default host defined.

Host

This tells the NETServer which host the user will be logging in to. Use the following command:

set user <name> host <host type>

<host type> is default, prompt or a specific IP address

Default

(Default) The user is passed on to the default host

 

for the port he or she is connected to.

 

set user <name> host default

Prompt

The user is given a Host: prompt. Users type the

 

name or IP address of the host they want.

 

Note that if the port default host type is also

 

prompt, the host prompt appears before login.

 

Otherwise, the host prompt appears after login.

 

set user <name> host prompt

IP Address

The user is connected to a specific host other than

 

the default host. Type in the IP address of the

 

specific host.

 

set user <name> host <IP address>
