CCIMODE COMx [BAUD RATE] REMOTE CCPM <ENTER>
This will make the port changes permanent.
  1. Next, security MUST be enabled for this port to prevent unwanted logins, and will help prevent the operating system from writing the welcome banner to the modem's buffer, causing a streaming data condition (if security has already been enabled for the system, the next 5 steps may be skipped).
  2. Change directories to \CDOS\SECURITY.
    NOTE:If the version of the operating system is 3.05 R9 or greater, the above statement is true. Older versions of the operating system have the SECURITY directory is off of the root directory instead.
  3. Copy the file CONTROL.OLD as CONTROL with no extension. Open the file with either the EDITOR program or any desired text editor.
  4. Insert a line underneath line 5 (which reads EXCLUDE 0). Underneath that line type INCLUDE x (where x is the station number of the port). For example, if the modem is on the Com1 port, type INCLUDE 1. This will enable security on all virtual consoles for this port. If there is no other security on the system except on the modem port, it is CRITICAL to replace the statement on line 5 with the statement EXCLUDE ALL . Failure to do so will result in security being on all ports except the host console.  Press DOWN ARROW once, to the line reading AUTO-LOGIN, and place a semi-colon in front of it. This will prevent the host console from requiring a login after each boot. In the following example, no system wide security has been implemented, and the only security required is on the modem port, which is on COM1:
MULTI ; Startup in normal multi-user mode (default).
CLEAR-BUFFERS ; Erase command line history buffers upon LOGINs
DO-UPON-BOOT U4 ; Run CCIBOOT.BAT on window #4 of Host console.
PASSWORD ; Make all consoles require a name and password,
EXCLUDE ALL ; Except HOST INCLUDE 1 ; Where 1 is the station number of the COM 1 port ;AUTO-LOGIN ; Just perform an initial LOGIN on HOST
;FILE-SECURITY ; remove ; to use this option
START-FIRST ; Run STARTxxy.BAT files BEFORE LOGINs
EXCLUDE ALL ; consoles specified with PASSWORD
NOTE:The above is an excerpt from the complete CONTROL file. Do NOT shorten the CONTROL file to match the example above.
  1. Save and exit the CONTROL file (by pressing CTRL-K, then X if using the EDITOR program).
  2. Edit the file CCIBOOT.BAT. In this file, remove the REM statement from LOOKOUT. Save and exit the file.
  3. Next, type SECURITY and press <ENTER> to start the Security program. Press U for Users, then A to Add a new user to the system. NOTE:On older versions of the operating system (prior to 3.05 R9), the PASS program is used;  to add a user in PASS, press A to add a user.
  4. Enter the username to be used for remote access (usernames are not case-sensitive).
  5. Press ENTER past the next two fields normally used for primary and secondary group ID's unless file security is to be used (3.05 R9 or later). Enter a password for the user if desired.
  6. Press ENTER to accept the default entries until prompted to press Enter to add the entry, or any other key to discard the entry. If a mistake was made during this process, press any other key but the ENTER key, and start over.
  7. When all entries of new users is complete, press S at the menu prompt to save changes, and exit the SECURITY program.                                                                    (continued...)
