Connecting to a 1451 session
1451 will connect to the remote host. The host then will normally respond with a welcome
and will lead you through its log in process. Log in, employing one of the following
combinations:
• With the userid and password supplied by the administrator of the host
• With just a userid (some hosts do not require passwords)
• Neither, if the remote host has been set up for it.
To connect to a 1451 remote host from the main 1451 screen:
1. Click Session to open the 1451 Session menu.
2. Click Connect.
Once connected, use the menus, commands and features of the remote host to access
and run 1451 applications.
Logging out of a remote host
1. When you have finished using the remote host, use the host’s normal log out
command.
2. To disconnect from the host, select Disconnect from the Session menu.
