The files used in the z/OS® UNIX Telnet server and their locations
in the z/OS UNIX file system are as follows:
- /etc/services
- The ports for each application
are defined here. For example:
otelnet xxxx/tcp
where xxxx is
the port that inetd should listen on for otelnet.
- /etc/syslog.conf
- The configuration parameters for usage of syslogd are defined
in this file. otelnetd writes to syslog facility local1.
- /etc/inetd.conf
- The configuration parameters for all applications started by inetd
are defined in this file.
- /usr/sbin/otelnetd
- This is a symbolic link to /usr/lpp/tcpip/sbin/otelnetd. /usr/lpp/tcpip/sbin/otelnetd
is a sticky-bit file. The OTELNETD member of SEZALOAD contains the
executable code for the Telnet server.
- /etc/banner
- This file contains a login message that is printed to the client's
screen after the client logs in, unless the -h option
is specified. Store the banner in this file.
- /etc/otelnetd.banner
- This file contains a message that is printed to the client's screen
prior to the login prompt when the user connects to the server, unless
the -h option is specified. Store the banner
in this file.
- /etc/utmpx
- This file is updated by the call to fsumoclp. It contains a list
of all the users who are logged in with their associated tty.
- /dev/ptypXXXX and /dev/ttypXXXX
- These special device files represent pseudoterminals (ptys); they
are used by the z/OS UNIX Telnet server and other programs.
- /usr/share/lib/terminfo
- The descriptions of supported terminals are stored here. For
more information, see z/OS UNIX System Services Planning.
- /usr/lib/nls/msg/C/tnmsgs.cat
- The message catalog used by the z/OS UNIX Telnet server is stored here.
If the message catalog does not exist, the software will use the
messages hard-coded within the software by default. These messages
duplicate the English message catalog that is shipped with the product.
- /usr/man/C/cat1/otelnetd.1
- This file contains the associated manual (man) pages for the z/OS UNIX Telnet
server. It provides online help for the user.
