Entering a Password

Typically, the system prompts for the user ID, password and optional alternate network group with the following message:

*ENTER USERID/PASSWORD/ALTERNATE GROUP

You can specify the alternate group information as the name of one of the nodes in the network group to which you want to connect, or as G=requested group number. If you do not specify an alternate group, you connect to the default group for your user ID.

If you fail to reply with the correct password after three attempts, the terminal is automatically logged off from CA Spool.
