SCOadmin character mode limitations

SCOadmin in single-user mode

To use SCOadmin managers in single-user mode, you must first set the terminal type manually. To identify and set the correct terminal type, see /etc/default/coterm or run the following command:

eval `defadm coterm TERM`; export TERM

Filesystem Manager

In the SCOadmin Filesystem Manager, in a character environment, the Select button for the Remote Directory field on the Add Remote Filesystem screen is not reachable. Either enter the remote directory name by hand or use the desktop version of the Filesystem Manager.

In the Filesystem Manager, the text in the option ``Advanced Options for Mounting CD-ROM'' does not display correctly in character mode. Use the desktop version of the SCOadmin Filesystem Manager to use this option.

License Manager

In the SCOadmin License Manager, when you select a license from the list in character mode, be sure to deselect any license you do not want to act on by using the arrow keys to highlight the item, then pressing the space bar.

Security Profile Manager

In character mode, the Security Profile Manager fails with a hung remote session if you try to use the OpenHost option to access a host where you do not have permission to use rsh(1) (for example, where you have no .rhost entry).
