Configuring Login Hosts

For a login host to be available to a login user, you must define

it in the NETServer login hosts table. This table contains the

host name, address, selection preference, and login service port

for each login host.

Note: To allow the user to access a login host using a host name,

you must first configure a DNS server using the add dns server

command. For example:

add dns server 7.7.7.7 name boston preference 1

To set up login host table entries in the NETServer:

Step 1 - Configure Login Hosts

Add as many hosts as necessary to support your login users.

Use the following command:

add login_host

<host_name>

address

<ip_address>

preference

rlogin_port

<TCP_port_number>

telnet_port

<TCP_port_number>

clearTCP_port

<TCP_port_number>

Host Name

Name of the login host.

Address

Optional. This is the IP address of the login host. If you specify

an IP address here, it will be added to the DNS host table. If

you do not specify an address, the NETServer will consult the

DNS server to resolve the address.

Preference

Priority for the login host. The preference number must be

unique for each host entry.
