1.126 RCONAG6

Rconag6.nlm is the RConsoleJ Agent. Load this NLM™ at the server console to allow remote console access to the server, using RConsoleJ Client.


LOAD RCONAG6 [ENCRYPT] [-Edigest | password IP_port IPX_port secure_IP_port]

Parameter	Use to
(no parameter)	Load RCONAG6 without command line parameters. You will be prompted for a password, IP port number, and IPX™ port number, Secure IP port number.
ENCRYPT	Encrypt the password and create a sys:system\ldrconag.ncf script file if desired. This script file can be used to load RCONAG6 at startup. (by inserting ldrconag.ncf in autoexec.ncf).
-Edigest	Specify an encrypted password (digest) that will be used at the command line. To use this parameter, you need to load RCONAG6 using the ENCRYPT option. This parameter is used in the ldrconag.ncf file (if you create the file using the ENCRYPT option).
password	Specify the password you want administrators of the remote server to use.
IP_port	Specify the IP port number that RCONAG6 will listen for RConsoleJ or a proxy server on. The default is 2034. -1 disables IP listening. 0 allows a dynamically assigned port to be used.
IPX_port	Specify the IPX port number that RCONAG6 will listen for a proxy server on. The default is 16800. -1 disables IPX listening. 0 allows a dynamically assigned port to be used.
secure_ IP_port	Specify the Secure IP port number that RCONAG6 will listen for RConsoleJ on a SSL-based port on. The default is 2036. -1 disables Secure IP listening. 0 allows a dynamically assigned port to be used.

If the target server runs Streams-based SPX™ services, you must load the spxs.nlm before loading RCONAG6. See NW 6.5 SP8: Remote Server Management Administration Guide.
Before accessing a target server using RConsoleJ, load RCONAG6 on the server. When you load RCONAG6, you establish a password that must be entered when you execute RConsoleJ.

To optimize security, use an encrypted password when loading RCONAG6.

To encrypt the password, enter
```
RCONAG6 ENCRYPT
```
The system prompts for a password. Enter the password. The password is encrypted and two options are provided:
- (Recommend) Create ldrconag.ncf, containing the script, to load rconag6.nlm with the encrypted password. This ensures that your password is in clear text. Additionally, you need not remember the password to load rconag6.nlm with the encrypted password.
- Load the rconag6.nlm without creating ldrconag.ncf
If you want to connect to an SPX server using RConsoleJ, you must also create a proxy server using rconprxy.nlm.
To make RConsoleJ sessions available whenever you boot the server, enter the following command in the autoexec.ncf file. (This assumes you have encrypted the password and created the sys:system\ldrconag.ncf file.)
