Parameter
IPhostname
Specifies the IP host name of the remote host.
IPaddress
Specifies an IP address of the remote host.
 
 
Description
The SET HOST/RLOGIN command allows you to log in to a remote host by 
invoking RLOGIN client software that runs on your system. Once you 
start the terminal session, you can enter commands interactively on the 
remote host. The parameter that specifies the remote host is either an 
IP host name or an IP address.
 
 
Qualifiers
/AUTHENTICATE
Specifies that Kerberos authentication should be used for acquiring 
access to the remote node.
/TERMINAL_TYPE=type
Sets the terminal emulator to one of the following terminal types: 
VT100, VT200, VT300, VT400, VT500.
/TRUNCATE_USERNAME
Specifies that the current user name should be truncated to 8 
characters before attempting to connect to the remote node. The 
qualifier is required for communication with systems that limit the 
size of their login names to 8 characters. The /TRUNCATE_USERNAME 
qualifier is ignored if /USERNAME is specified.
/USERNAME=username
Specifies the user name for logging in to the remote node. The user 
name can be enclosed in quotes to preserve the case of the user name 
for case sensitive systems such as UNIX systems. If the /USERNAME 
qualifier is not specified, the default is the current user's user name.
