I try to log on the network there (they use IRIX for their network). The command "rlogin" works when I'm in the basic shell (the one that appear when you boot for the first time without starting the X Server with "startx or xinit") but it didn't work when I'm use it in a terminal in my X Server (I use WindowMaker with a session of Gnome).Why? What's the differance between doing the command in the basic shell or in a Xterminal? I also want to know if it's possible to run the application of the IRIX machine via telnet or something else on my i386 architecture. Is there also a way to log in directly via the login prompt to the IRIX network. The only way we can communicate presently, is by "rlogin" (when I'm the basic shell) or by telnet (it works either in a Xterminal or the basic shell). We wanted to be able to log on the LAN just by typing a username and a password (is it possible with 2 differant version of Unix and also 2 differant architecture?). I hope I was clear, don't hesitate to tell me more specific question to answer my questions. Thanks a lot.
