Define the Login Sequence Script Lines
For the system to log in and begin a session on the telnet server, you must provide the sequence of telnet server login prompts and responses. The last value in the sequence specifies the telnet script that QDT creates.
The name of the script that QDT generates is telnet-lang.<environment_name> or telnet.<environment_name>.
You do not receive telnet-lang.<environment_name> scripts if all of the installed languages use the same code page (for example, if you installed us, fr, and ge).
Following the instructions is a set of sample script values for Windows and Linux/UNIX systems.
Important: You must specify the login sequence in the QAD .NET UI, but the values are ignored. In terminal mode, the user’s QAD .NET UI user ID and password must exactly match the Linux/UNIX user ID and password.
When defining paths for scripts used in the QAD .NET UI, avoid using relative paths because each user’s access can be different.
To define the login sequence script lines, use these steps:
1 Specify the telnet login sequence number in the Script Lines frame. For each telnet command, enter a sequence number beginning with 1, and select Go.
2 In the next frame, enter the following:
Script Pattern
Enter the prompt that the telnet server generates when a telnet login occurs. The values in this field must be identical to the prompts the telnet server displays when users log in.
Script Value
Enter the response to the telnet login prompt defined in Script Pattern.
Script Status
Optional. Enter a description of the prompt and response (for example, Logging In).
If tracing is enabled and the Java console displayed, the description in the Script Status field displays in the Java console on the client when an error occurs during the execution of the prompt and response. You can use these descriptions to troubleshoot telnet session problems.
Note: When you enter a password as a script value, only blanks are displayed. When you select Go at the end of the sequence, the system prompts you to confirm the password.
3 Select Go after entering the sequence values. You return to the Sequence field to enter the next sequence number and values.
4 After entering the final sequence, select Go to return to the Sequence field.
5 Select End to move to the Telnet Connections fields.
