Creating a login script on your handheld

You can create login scripts by selecting commands from the Command pick list in
the Login Script dialog box. Some commands, such as Send, require you to supply
additional information. Those commands have a parameter field so that you can
add the necessary data.

To create a login script:

1.

Tap Script.

2.

Tap the End pick list.

3.

Select the command you want from the Command list. If the command requires
additional information, a field appears to the right of it for you to enter the
information. The following commands are available:

Wait For

Tells your handheld to wait for specific characters from the
TCP/IP server before executing the next command.

Wait For
Prompt

Detects a challenge-response prompt coming from the server
and then displays the dynamically generated challenge value.
You then enter the challenge value into your token card, which
in turn generates a response value for you to enter on your
handheld. This command takes two arguments, separated by a
vertical bar (|) on the input line.

Send

Transmits specific characters to the TCP/IP server to which you
are connecting.

Send CR

Transmits a carriage return or LF character to the TCP/IP server
to which you are connecting.

Send User ID

Transmits the user ID information entered in the User ID field of
the Network Preferences screen.

Send
Password

Transmits the password entered in the Password field of the
Network Preferences screen. If you did not enter a password,
this command prompts you to enter one. The Password
command is usually followed by a Send CR command.
