Using NS3000/XL Network Services

Special Considerations When Using DSLINE 

NetCI establishes  DSLINE connections in quiet mode.  Thus, no messages
or prompts will be forwarded to your terminal while a connection is being
established.  If the remote node prompts for information (for example,
password or termtype), the terminal or user would not know that a
response is expected.  No response would be sent, and the remote node
connection will hang.  Therefore, if a logon UDC runs a program requiring
information such as termtype, make sure the termtype is specified with
your logon information.  If a password is required but not provided, you
will receive a logon error message indicating an incorrect password.  You
should specify a correct password in the logon information.
