NAME

       sethost - Emulates a DEC VT100 terminal

SYNOPSIS

       sethost [options] nodename
       Options:
       [-Vh] [-e char]

DESCRIPTION

       sethost emulates a DEC VT100 terminal.

       This application implements the CTERM protocol over DECnet for connecting to a remote DECnet host emulating a DEC VT100 terminal.
       dnlogin is a replacement for sethost with more compatibility features.

OPTIONS

       -e <char>
	      Set the exit character. By default this is ^]. You can specify the exit character as a control character by preceding it with a cir-
	      cumflex eg (^A means control-A) or as a number in decimal (default), octal (starting with a zero), or hexadecimal (preceded by 0x or
	      0X).

       -h -?  Displays help for using the command.

       -V     Show the version of the package that sethost was built with.

EXAMPLES

       Connect to remote VAX host named "mv3100".

	   sethost mv3100

HELPFUL HINTS

       The CTERM specifications available from Digital does not include how to setup VMS terminal characteristics, so the host cannot identify the
       capabilities of the session we are creating. The simplest workaround is to set the terminal capabilities manually upon login  or  including
       the following command in the login.com DCL procedure.

       $ SET TERM/DEC_CRT
