Running a TELNET Client in the OSS
Environment
Access to the Open System Services (OSS) environment, which is the HP NonStop
POSIX offering, is available through TELNET clients running in NVT mode.
Enter the following command:
->TELNET hp-host-IP-address
After the connection has been made, the Welcome Banner and the Selection Menu are
shown on the screen.
At the Enter Choice prompt, enter:
->TACL
At the TACL prompt, enter:
->LOGON user-id
You are prompted for your password. Enter your password.
To start a shell, enter:
->OSH
To exit from OSS, type the exit command followed by a zero (exit 0). This returns you
to the TACL prompt. You can then log off to end the TELNET session
Note. Guardian applications can gain access to the OSS environment through OSSTTY as
well as through TELNET. For information about OSSTTY, see the Open System Services
Management and Operations Guide and the Open System Services Programmer’s Guide.
Information on OSSTTY is also contained in the following OSS manuals: Open System
Services System Calls Reference Manual, Open System Services Library Calls Reference
Manual, and Open System Services Shell and Utilities Reference Manual.
