Modifying The /Etc/Remote File - Fujitsu SPARC Enterprise T2000 Administration Manual

2. Ensure that the /etc/remote file on the system contains an entry for hardwire.
Most releases of Solaris OS software shipped since 1992 contain an /etc/remote
file with the appropriate hardwire entry. However, if the system is running an
older version of Solaris OS software, or if the /etc/remote file has been modified,
you might need to edit it. See
details.
3. In a shell tool window on the system, type:
% tip hardwire
The system responds by displaying:
connected
The shell tool is now a Tip window directed to the SPARC Enterprise T2000 server
through the system's serial port. This connection is established and maintained even
when the SPARC Enterprise T2000 server is completely powered off or just starting
up.
Note – Use a shell tool or a CDE terminal (such as dtterm), not a command tool.
Some Tip commands might not work properly in a command tool window.

Modifying the /etc/remote File

This procedure might be necessary if you are accessing the SPARC Enterprise T2000
server using a Tip connection from a system running an older version of the Solaris
OS software. You might also need to perform this procedure if the /etc/remote file
on the system has been altered and no longer contains an appropriate hardwire
entry.
Log in as superuser to the system console of a system that you intend to use to
establish a Tip connection to the SPARC Enterprise T2000 server.
