Virtual Terminal

DSLINE Command

unless overridden in a later DSLINE command. These

defaults can be reset by the RESET option, which is

described below.

Default: the speciﬁed nodename (which then becomes an

environment ID) or, if nodename is omitted as well, the

environment speciﬁed by the last DSLINE or REMOTE

command.

nodename When you are using NS names, the nodename is the

name assigned to the remote node when it is conﬁgured

into the NS 3000/iX network. This name may optionally

be qualiﬁed in the format node[.domain[.organization]].

The default domain and organization are those of the

local node. Each portion of this string may have a

maximum of 16 alphanumeric characters (including

underscores and hyphens), of which the ﬁrst must be

alphabetic. When you are using ARPA domain names,

the nodename has the syntax label[.label[...].

The labels must follow the syntax for ARPANET host

names. The envID for ARPA domain names will not be

fully qualiﬁed. Refer to ARPA Domain Name Syntax in

Chapter 1, “Introduction to NS 3000/iX,” for more

details.

An environment ID may be equated with this node

name, or the node name (if used alone) may become its

own environment ID. In either case, the environment

ID then represents a speciﬁc remote session on this

node. Default: the environment speciﬁed by the last

DSLINE or REMOTE command.

envnum An environment number representing a speciﬁc session

on a remote node. This is the number of the

environment in the message printed out following a

prior DSLINE command.

SERVICES Lists the status of the services on the node (local or

remote) indicated by the environment ID.

DSLINEoption One of the options described in the following

paragraphs.

QUIET Speciﬁes that no logon message be displayed when you

log on to the remote environment, no logoff message be

displayed when you log off, and no environment

messages be displayed when a DSLINE command is

executed.
