Minor plug follows: SECURITY/3000 from VESOFT will allow your users
to access the HP3000 by entering a UNIX-style logon id, if you so
desire.  You can mix access methods, allowing the login id access
method to be used in addition to the traditional HP3000 HELLO command.
 
For more information, contact VESOFT at (310) 282 0420 and request
documentation and/or a free demo. If you have any problems in
configuring this or any other part of SECURITY/3000, please contact
Tech Support or myself at the above number.
