Yeah, I was wondering about PTY thingy (I think discussion subject was who am I wIntegrate or something...). Our dumb terminals are connected to the DEC Terminal server, which start telnet connection to the UniData host. So in our environment, all our interactive users use pty.
I've never used DC terminal emulator. Does it understand wIntegrate escape sequences? If not, we may be able to do something like this: UniBASIC code 001: PROMPT "" 002: EXECUTE "CONTROLCHARS ON" 003: 004: ASK.WINTY = CHAR(27):CHAR(1):"Enter stx:Version:esb":CHAR(13) 005: PRINT ASK.WINTY; * Who are you? 006: 007: ECHO OFF 008: INPUT ANS.BACK FOR 5 ELSE ANS.BACK = "Unknown..."; * ANS.BACK should contain wIntegrate version. 009: ECHO ON 010: 011: PRINT "ANS.BACK = ":ANS.BACK 012: EXECUTE "CONTROLCHARS OFF" -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ken Wallis Sent: Thursday, May 03, 2007 6:33 PM To: u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org Subject: RE: [U2] What's My IP Address ?

On AIX its "who -Hum" to get your own line formatted from wtmp. But I'd think the answerback approach makes more sense. I'm not familiar with DC, but most emulators allow you to specify the string to send back in response to CTRL-E during session startup. On a Unix host you should have this answerback string in $TERM when you start running /etc/profile and ~/.profile. If those scripts are going to modify this before uv or udt is invoked, then just save it somewhere else: export ANSWERBACK_TERM=$TERM and then inside udt you'd just run a program that did a GETENV("ANSWERBACK_TERM"), or in uv you might have to EXECUTE "SH -c 'echo $ANSWERBACK_TERM'" CAPTURING. Make your DC emulators answer differently to your wIntegrate ones and you are away. One other point. I couldn't understand how the malarchy with @TTY was going to help differentiate between DC and wIntegrate. Sure it could help work out whether you had a telnet session or were on a real old terminal, but both DC and wIntegrate will end up connected via a pseudo terminal.
