dnlogin - Connect as a terminal to a DECnet system

       dnlogin connects to a remote DECnet system.

       This  application  implements  the  CTERM protocol over DECnet for connecting to a remote DECnet host. It
       expects to be run from a VT100-compatible terminal.
       dnlogin is a replacement for the old "sethost" program.

       Connect to remote VAX host named "mv3100".

           dnlogin mv3100

       The   CTERM   specifications  available  from  Digital  does  not  include  how  to  setup  VMS  terminal
       characteristics, so the host cannot identify the  capabilities  of  the  session  we  are  creating.  The
       simplest  workaround  is  to set the terminal capabilities manually upon login or including the following
       command in the login.com DCL procedure.

       $SETTERM/DEC_CRT

       -Tconnecttimeout
              Specifies the maximum amount of time the command will wait to  establish  a  connection  with  the
              remote node. a 0 here will cause it to wait forever. The default is 60 seconds
