Specifications

The values of items s1,s2,…sn may specify the hostname(s) of one or several MDR
systems that the user want to control with the MDR shell program. In the above
example, only one MDR called
midas is specified.
All hostnames/IP addresses in the
[Servers] section have to be located in the hostname
database being used by the computer running the MDR shell. The MDR shell program
retrieves the IP address corresponding to the hostname for each host.
If the user specifies one or more server items in the
[Server] section, then the MDR
shell will not prompt the user for the hostname of the MDR server before trying to
connect to the MDR server.
