Using conserver
Connecting to a console is easy:
console <machine>
The console command is currently installed on Solaris and Linux machines.
After asking for your password (same as to login to csw), this will connect you with read/write if no one else is connected to the console already. Otherwise it puts you in
spy (read-only) mode.
Conserver has a control sequence, ^Ec (ctrl-E, then c) which is then followed by a command (usually one character). If you then type ? it will give you a list of things you can do and the character that does them.
The two most common things are to disconnect: ^Ec. (period after the c) and to break: ^Ecl0 (ell-zero)
Log files are now kept in /var/log/conserver/<machine>.log
There is a unified log in /var/log/conserver.log
The following is what you get when doing ^Ec?:
[help]
. disconnect
; move to another console
a attach read/write
b send broadcast message
c toggle flow control
d down a console
e change escape sequence
f force attach read/write
g group info
i information dump
L toggle logging on/off
l? break sequence list
l0 send break per config file
l1-9 send specific break sequence
m display the message of the day
o (re)open the tty and log file
p playback the last 60 lines
P set number of playback lines
r replay the last 20 lines
R set number of replay lines
s spy mode (read only)
u show host status
v show version info
w who is on this console
x show console baud info
z suspend the connection
| attach local command
? print this message
<cr> ignore/abort command
^R replay the last line
\ooo send character by octal code
