Manually Connecting to a Remote Site
You can dial a remote (or local) site from the Command Line
software with the dial command and log in to a local host with
the nslogin, rlogin, and telnet commands.
The Dial Command
Use the following command:
dial <location>
<location> must be a valid Location Table entry. You can also
add a debugging option, -x, after the <location> field. This
option displays the negotiation/connection messages.
Nslogin, Rlogin and Telnet Commands
nslogin makes a PortMux connection with a host, rlogin an
Rlogin connection, and telnet a Telnet connection. PortMux
multiplexes many Telnet sessions, requiring fewer connections.
They all use the following syntax:
nslogin <host> (or rlogin <host> or telnet <host>)
<host> must contain the IP address or name of the host you are
connecting to.
For example, to Telnet to a host with an IP address of
167.199.76.23, use the following command:
telnet 167.199.76.23
