With the release of version C.55.00 of MPE/iX,
Telnet server functionality is available to HP 3000 customers. The
Telnet server allows users on a remote system that supports the
TCP/IP and Telnet protocols to log on and
run applications on the HP 3000. The Telnet client, which was first
made available on version C.50.00 of MPE/iX, gives users on an HP
3000 direct access to other systems that support Telnet and TCP/IP.
This chapter describes:
How to verify the installation of
the Telnet files
How to edit the inetd
configuration file and the services file to configure the Telnet
server.
How to start the Telnet server once the product
has been configured.
How to troubleshoot problems that arise with Telnet
Implementation differences between Telnet
for MPE/iX and Telnet
for HP-UX.
Before release C.55.00, the capability to receive incoming
Telnet connections on the HP 3000 was only available with DTC Telnet
access. The HP 3000 processed such connections via a DTC configured
with a Telnet Access Card (TAC) using PC-based management software.
HP 3000 customers can continue to use DTC Telnet access,
particularly if the level of Telnet traffic places a heavy load
on the processing capacity of the host HP 3000's CPU.
