Unix Server Connection Settings

PROIV Hostname or IP Address

Enter the details of the Virtual Machine host name or the IP address. If you are working locally, enter localhost in this field.

Commands to run PROIV Virtual Machine

After a successful log, you can specify to run shell scripts on the Unix host. Enter the full path to the file containing the connection scripts.

Unix User Name

Enter the user name for a successful login.

Unix Password

Enter the password for a successful login.

Remember Username and Password

Check the box to ensure that the user name and password details are remembered.

Prompt for Security

Select this check box to enable the PROIV Client to prompt the user for user name and password at connection. Selecting the Remember Username/Password check box eliminates having to re-enter the user name and password.

Advanced Settings

These parameters allow you to specify the strings to search for before transmitting the user name and password, the command prompt to wait for before sending the startup command to the host, and the timeout value (in seconds) to wait before generating a time-out warning.

Terminal Command

The command line for the terminal emulation program you are using to connect into the remote host.

Command Parameters

Enter the command line parameters that need to be passed to the terminal emulator when used for connecting to a host. You may enter the location of an automated log-in script (if the third party software allows it). Any parameters using a third party executable may be entered in this field. See the user documentation for the terminal emulation software you are using for more information.

User Prompt

The text displayed by the remote host when asking a user to log into the operating system. This is the text that would be seen if a user manually connected into that machine using the program or script entered into the Terminal Command field, before the user would enter their user name.

Password Prompt

The text displayed by the remote host, used to ask the user to enter their operating system user password.

Server Port

The port on which the remote host is listening for a client connection.

Terminal Window Title

Enter the text that you would like to see in the window title area of the PROIV Client. This field is optional; the text you enter will appear after a connection is made. See Locating a Valid Telnet Session Window for additional information.

Command Line Prompt

The text displayed by the remote host that indicates the connection has been successfully made, and the remote host is waiting for a command. This is usually the command prompt for the specified operating system user on the remote machine.

Login via Terminal

This option invokes a telnet terminal emulator program to allow the user to login.

Connection Timeout in Seconds

The time in seconds to wait for a successful connection to a PROIV Virtual Machine. Defaults to 10 seconds.

Use Binary Telnet

Check this box if the remote host needs to negotiate the telnet connection in binary mode. Your remote host’s system administrator should be able to provide assistance.

Terminal Type

Terminal type that is presented to the host telnet service. For example, for an IBM 3270 model 2 terminal, use IBM3270-2.

Standard TCP Connection

The connection to the host is via TCP/IP. This is the default connection.

Secure Connection

If you want to make an SSL connection and your remote host supports it, check this box.

Connect via SSH tunnel

Enforces a Secure Shell connection to the host.
