L (LOGIN) -- Log in to a node.
usage:  l id [proj [org]] [-p] [-h]


FORMAT

  L id [proj [org]] [options]


  The  L  command  allows  you  to  log  in  to a node.  It is valid only at the
  beginning of a session in reponse to the "Please log in:" prompt.  Typing  the
  L command after logging in causes an error.  After entering the L command, the
  system  will request a password.  If you specify either the id or the password
  incorrectly, the system displays an error message and the  correct  format  of
  the L command, and you may try again.

  If   you   forget  your  password,  you  will  have  to  contact  your  System
  Admin- istrator, who can assign a new password to you.  The administrator will
  NOT be able to tell you your  current  password,  since  those  are  encrypted
  within the system and are not human-readable.

  When you have logged in successfully, the system sets the working directory to
  your "login home directory," which may be anywhere in your file hierarchy that
  you  please.  The login home directory name is first established by the System
  Administrator for your network when your account is created.  You  may  change
  it using the -H option (below).


ARGUMENTS

  The  id, proj, and org arguments may be separated either by blanks (as shown),
  or by periods.

  id
  (required)          Specify  the  user  id  assigned  to  you  by  the  System
                     Administrator when your access privileges were established.

  proj
  (optional)          Specify project id associated with this user id.  User ids
                     may or may not have  project  ids,  depending  on  how  the
                     access privileges were set up.

  org
  (optional)          Specify  organization  id  associated  with  this user and
                     project id.  Again, this may or may not  be  necessary  for
                     any particular user id.


OPTIONS

  -P                  Set  new  password.  After you have successfully logged on
                     with the old password, the system will prompt you to set  a
                     new password.  The password may be any combination of ASCII
                     characters  up  to  a maximum of 8 characters.  (Note: Some
                     network configurations may require the password  to  be  at
                     least  6  characters  long  for added security.  Check with
                     your local System Administrator to see if this  requirement
                     has been implemented on your network.)

  -H                  Set  new  home  directory.    After  you  have  logged  on
                     successfully, the system will prompt you to establish a new
                     home directory for login.    Enter  the  desired  pathname.
                     This  is the directory which you enter by default each time
                     you log on.
