2.54.4 Using the Telnet Daemon’s TCP/IP Port
If you are setting up TN server to TCP/IP port number 23, you need to set up the HP-UX computer running TN
server to share this port between TN server and the Telnet daemon program. To do this, take the following steps:
Sharing TCP/IP Port Number 23
1. Ensure that the SNAplus2 software has stopped on the HP-UX computer.
2. Log on to the HP-UX computer as
root.
3. Edit the file /etc/inetd.conf, and find the line beginning with “telnet.”. Make a note of the full pathname
for the Telnet daemon executable program, and any supplied parameters for this program, which are included
at the end of this line; typically these are /etc/telnetd and
telnetd. Insert a
[#] character at the start of the
line to comment out the line, then save the file.
4. Create an ASCII text file /etc/snapinetd.conf. This file should consist of a single line containing the
Telnet daemon executable pathname and parameters, as determined in step 3. For example:
/etc/telnetd telnetd
5. Use the HP-UX ps command to find the process ID of the Internet daemon program
inetd.
6. Use the HP-UX kill command to stop this process by issuing the following command:
kill processid
processid is the process ID that you found in step 5.
7. Start the SNAplus2 Internet daemon program by issuing the following command:
snapinetd
8. Restart the Internet daemon program by issuing the following command:
inetd
9. Restart the SNAplus2 software, then restart the node.
Steps 5, 6, 7, and 8 must be repeated each time you restart the HP-UX computer. You may want to set up a shell
script containing these commands, so that it can be run at startup.
Note
If you have set up a session to use the Telnet daemon’s TCP/IP port, do not use SSL for
this session. If you use SSL on a session that uses the Telnet daemon’s TCP/IP port, Telnet
clients will not be able to use
telnet
to access the SNAplus2 computer while the node is
active.
2.55 define_tn3270_association
The define_tn3270_association command defines an association between a display LU and a printer LU.
This association allows a TN3270E client to connect to the printer LU that is associated with a display LU without
knowing the name of the printer LU. The define_tn3270_association command can be used to define a
new association or to overwrite an existing association for a particular display LU.
