Quitting TeemTalk
You can quit an instance of TeemTalk by clicking File in the menu bar and selecting
Quit in the menu, or by using functions provided by the Window Manager. On UNIX
workstations, TeemTalk will also be exited when you log out, for example by typing
Ctrl + D (C shell) while the pointer is within the window.
Host Communications
TeemTalk can communicate with the operating system shell (STDIN and STDOUT)
or a host through an RS232 port. TeemTalk also includes a telnet driver for remote
host connection so that precise control can be exercised over the information that
TeemTalk receives and transmits. You must use the telnet facility provided by
TeemTalk when using block mode emulations such as IBM 3270.
Initiating A Telnet Session
TeemTalk has its own inbuilt telnet driver so that precise control can be exercised over
the information that TeemTalk receives and transmits. You must use the telnet facility
provided by TeemTalk when using block mode emulations such as IBM 3270.
A telnet session can be initiated from a dialog box while TeemTalk is running or by
using resources or command line options. Note that TeemTalk must be configured so
that it is running the required terminal emulation before initiating a telnet session.
You can initiate a telnet session while TeemTalk is running by displaying the File
menu and selecting the Open Connection option.
The Type list box is used to specify the type of host connection that is to be made:
TCP/IP, SSH2 or SSL/TLS. The SSH (Secure Shell) client/server protocol is used to
encrypt and transmit data securely over a network, with authentication (proof of client
identity) provided by a password and/or key. The SSL (Secure Sockets Layer)
protocol enables authenticated and encrypted communication between clients and
servers.
