- Yes, hardwired terminals have no remote access information. You're

- I should think not. LTAnnn should not show a DECnet style address.

- Before SYLOGIN gets control is enough that you need to know.

- #It seems a SET TERMINAL/INQUIRE in our SYLOGIN.COM is responsible for

- Nope. If the information is available, it is there long before

- Coincidence.

-
- Enough information was NOT given. Show us some REAL examples of a
- terminal logged in via DECnet or LAT that has no remote port information.
- Until then, just write it out to a file from sylogin. SET TERM/INQ
- in SYLOGIN is a reason for you to be shot, by the way...
