usage: CRP [command line] {-ON node_id | -MBX name} [-CP|-CPO |-CPS] [-N [name]
| -NWP | -LOGIN name [password] ]
FORMAT
CRP {-ON node_id | -MBX name} [options]
CRP creates a process on a remote node.
ARGUMENTS
command line
(optional) Specify command line to be executed by the remote process.
If the command string contains embedded blanks, enclose it
in quotation marks.
Default if omitted: execute /COM/SH (the Shell).
OPTIONS
One of the following options which specifies the remote node MUST be used:
-ON node_id Specify either hexadecimal node_id or entry directory name
of any volume on the selected remote node.
-MBX name Specify server's mailbox name on selected remote node.
One of the following options may be specified (default option is indicated by
a "(D)"):
-CP (D) Create a remote process running with standard streams
connected to the current window. Not valid if -CPO or -CPS
is specified. You may stop these processes by typing an
EEF (usually CTRL/Z) in the process input pad.
-CPO Create a remote process without a connection to the current
window, and an identity of 'user.none.none'. Not valid if
-CP or -CPS is specified. To stop these processes, you
must first create a visible remote process running the
Shell, then issue the SIGP command to stop the background
process.
-CPS Create a remote process without a connection to the current
window, and an identity of 'user.server.none'. Not valid
if -CP or -CPO is specified. To stop these processes, you
must first create a visible remote process running the
Shell, then issue the SIGP command to stop the background
process.
-NWP Do not create a window pane legend indicating that the
local window is connected to a remote process. Use with
-CP option only.
-N [name] Specify the name of the remote process. If name is not
specified, the default is the user id.node_id. This allows
remote processes to be traced to their originator.
-LOGIN name [password]
Specify the login sequence for the remote process on the
command line. If the password is omitted, the system
prompts you for it. A null (zero length) password is
specified by the null string ''.
EXAMPLES
$ crp -on 532 -login joe Create a process on node 532 running the
Shell, and log in with the user id "joe".
