Logging On With TACL
For example, these two commands produce the same results:
These examples show several simple, common ways to enter a TACL command. For
information about entering more than one TACL command per line and other ways to
continue TACL commands over several lines, see the TACL Reference Manual.
Logging On With TACL
To access your system and establish communication with a TACL process, use the
TACL LOGON command. To log on at a terminal controlled by Safeguard, see
To log on, you need a user name and user ID, which are usually assigned to new users
by your group or system manager.
Your user name has two parts, separated by a period: your group name and your
individual name within your group. For example, the user name of a user named Stein in
the Support group would be:
SUPPORT.STEIN
Your user ID is your group number and your individual number in your group, separated
by a comma. For example, if user SUPPORT.STEIN is user number 66 in group number
6, her user number is:
6,66
Each user can have a logon password — a string of characters that you must enter to
access the system. You can select and change your own password on most systems (see
on page 2-8). Using a logon password prevents anyone else
from logging on as you. If you do not use a password, anyone can log on as you by
simply entering your user name in a LOGON command.
Passwords are case sensitive, which means that lowercase and uppercase letters are
recognized as different characters and you must enter them appropriately.
If you have a user name and ID, but no password, you log on by entering your user
name in a LOGON command. When the TACL program prompts for a password, press
Return.
The TACL program provides two methods for logging on to a system using a password:
•
Blind password logon feature
•
Full logon feature
10> TAL / IN $MANUF.MYSUB.MYSRCE, OUT $LP / $MANUF.MYSUB.MYOBJ
10> TAL / IN $MANUF.MYSUB.MYSRCE, OUT $LP / $MAN&
10> &UF.MYSUB.MYOBJ
Note. Some systems do not require a password for users. Other systems might not allow the
full logon feature or user IDs in a LOGON command. If you are uncertain about your system,
ask your group or system manager.
