Creating log in scripts
A log in script is a series of commands that automates logging in to a
network server, for example, your corporate network or your Internet
Service Provider (ISP). It is something that you are likely to receive from
your IS System Administrator, if your company has a system in which you
log in to the corporate servers from your CLIE handheld using a modem or
network connection.
Notes
•When using Sony CLIE Modem PEGA-MD700, you do not have to create a log in
script.
•You can also use non-ASCII and literal characters in your log in script. For more
information, see page 193.

3 Tap Script.
The Log in Script screen is displayed.
4 Tap the arrow V next to End and select one of the following
commands. If the command requires additional information,
a field appears to the right of it for you to enter the
information.
• Wait For: Tells your CLIE handheld to wait for specific characters from
the TCP/IP server before executing the next command.
• Wait For Prompt: Detects a challenge-response prompt coming from
the server and then displays the dynamically generated challenge
value. You then enter the challenge value into your token card, which
in turn generates a response value for you to enter on your handheld.
This command takes two arguments, separated by a vertical bar (|) on
the input line.
• Send: Transmits specific characters to the TCP/IP server to which you
are connecting.
• Send CR: Transmits a carriage return or LF character to the TCP/IP
server to which you are connecting.
• Send User ID: Transmits the User ID information entered in the User ID
field of the Network Preferences screen.
• Send Password: Transmits the password entered in the Password field
of the Network Preferences screen. If you did not enter a password, this
command prompts you to enter one. The Password
command is usually followed by a Send CR command.
• Delay: Tells your handheld to wait a specific number of seconds before
executing the next command in the login script.
• Get IP: Reads an IP address and uses it as the IP address for your CLIE
handheld. This command is used with SLIP connections.
• Prompt: Opens a dialog box and prompts you to enter text of some
kind (for example, a password or a security code).
• End: Identifies the last line in the log in script.
5 Repeat step 4 until the log in script is complete.
6 Tap OK.
7 Tap OK.

Non-ASCII Characters for Log in Scripts
The following information enables you to create custom log in scripts that
require non-ASCII characters. It is provided for advanced users who
understand the use and requirements of such characters in a custom log in
script.
Use of ^char
You may use the caret ( ^ ) to transmit ASCII command characters. If you
send ^char, and the ASCII value of char is between @ and _, then the
character is automatically translated to a single-byte value between 0 and 31.
For example, ^M is converted to a carriage return.
If char is a value between a and z, then the character sequence is translated
to a single-byte value between 1 and 26. If char is any other value, then the
character sequence is not subject to any special processing. For example, the
string “Joe^M” transmits Joe, followed by a carriage return.
Carriage return and line feed
You may include carriage return and line feed commands as part of the
login script, when entered in the following format.
•  : Sends or receives a carriage return
•  : Sends or receives a line feed
For example, the string “waitfor Joe” waits to receive Joe followed
by a carriage return and line feed from the remote computer before
executing the next command in the script.
Literal characters
The backslash (  ) character defines that the next character is transmitted as
a literal character, and is not subject to any special processing ordinarily
associated with that character.
Examples:
• \^ : Includes a caret as part of the string
• \< : Includes a < as part of the string
• \\ : Includes a backslash as part of the string

handheld by performing HotSync operations with the identical user name. Doing so
may cause trouble.
•When you perform a HotSync operation with your new CLIE handheld and the
New User dialog box is displayed, enter a different user name from that of your old
CLIE handheld. If you enter the identical user name, the Palm Desktop for CLIE
software may not be able to recognize the difference between your CLIE handhelds
and the data of both handhelds may be mixed up or deleted.
•If you copy UnsavedPreference, the user name is also copied. This prevents you
from managing the two CLIE handhelds with different user names.
