NAME¶

ctermd - CTERM services for Linux

SYNOPSIS¶

ctermd
[options]
Options:
[-dvVh] [-l logtype]

DESCRIPTION¶

Allows remote users to connect as a terminal over DECnet.

This application implements the CTERM protocol over DECnet for allowing a remote DECnet host emulating a DEC VT100 terminal to connect to Linux.

Normally this daemon will be run from dnetd(8) rather than by hand.

OPTIONS¶

-l

Set logging options. The following are available:
-lm Log to /dev/mono. (only useful if you have my mono monitor driver or mdacon and a second monitor)
-le Log to stderr. Use this for debugging or testing combined with -d.
-ls Log to syslog(3). This is the default if no options are given.

-d

Don't fork and run the background. Use this for debugging.

-v

Verbose. The more of these there are the more verbose ctermd will be.

-h -?

Displays help for using the command.

-V

Show the version of ctermd.
