- When the Telnet session ends, the values in the P1 locations CTL$T_NODENAME
- and CTL$T_REMOTEID should be written in the the process-rundown
- accounting record, if enabled. You can check those values while you're
- logged in to se if UCX even sets them. If not, you could add a program
- to your login which could fill them in. The CTL$T_NODENAME field is
- limited to six characters, but you could put a 32-bit IP address in there.
- CTL$T_REMOTEID should be set to the USERNAME.
