REXEC Connection Settings

The screenshot below depicts the Remote Process Execution (REXEC) connection configuration dialog and settings.

(For more information on other session property configuration tabs, please see Session Properties.)

The following REXEC configuration settings are available to properly setup your device connection and terminal session.

Setting	Description
Auto Connect	If this option is enabled, then the terminal session will attempt to establish a connection immediately when opened in Indigo.
REXEC Host	The REXEC server/host should be provided in this configuration field. This entry can be an IP address, computer name, or DNS hostname.
REXEC Port	The REXEC server/host port can be used if a custom REXEC port must be provided. (The default port for the REXEC protocol is port 512.)
Command To Execute	This command instruction will be automatically sent to the server/host when a connection is established.

REXEC Connection Authentication Options

When using a REXEC connection, Indigo can provide an option for automated password authentication.
(The REXEC protocol intrinsically supports authentication as part of the protocol.)

Username

This is the user name that Indigo will provide when authenticating with the REXEC server/host.

Password

This is the password that Indigo will provide when authenticating with the REXEC server/host.
