Lame Question Regarding SLAX

[dsulli99]

Hi, All, 

I posted a similar post in another forum so I apologize if you're reading this twice.  Basically I have a lame SLAX question that I'm sure is pretty easy to answer.  I'm trying to create a custom login script that sets my terminal emulation type and screen length "set cli screen-length 0" and "run set cli terminal vt100" variables.  Basically I've got the following script;

version 1.0;

ns junos = "http://xml.juniper.net/junos/*/junos";

ns xnm = "http://xml.juniper.net/xnm/1.1/xnm";

ns jcs = "http://xml.juniper.net/junos/commit-scripts/1.0";

import "../import/junos.xsl";

match / {

        <op-script-results> {

                <output> "Starting Login Script!";

                var $set_vt100 = {

                        <command> 'set cli terminal vt100';

                }

                var $result = jcs:invoke($set_vt100);

                <output> "Ending Login Script!";

        }

}

The script is actually executing fine, but the problem is that it appears to be spawning a separate user login process to execute this command and then quitting.  The settings aren't actually applying for the current login.  Is there any way around this?  I would like to set my CLI options for my terminal upon login.

I replied in the other forum, but I'll do so here too. It isn't possible for a script (login or normal op script) to modify your current session settings.

ccali,

Thank you for your reply.  Do you (or anybody) know if it's possible to set these types of options upon login or link them to a user class in any way (script or no script)?  I would think that this would be something that many users would like to do.

It doesn't look like there is a way to do this currently within Junos, unfortunately.

Ok, thanks for your help.

It is not possible to set screen-length to 0 but it is possible to set max size. Something like this:

> stty rows 100000
> export TERM=test
> ssh 192.0.2.1
...
cougar@example> show cli 
...
CLI screen-length set to 34464
CLI screen-width set to 80
CLI terminal is 'test'
