NAME
       dgsvcmon - Data General remote service monitor

SYNOPSIS
       /usr/sbin/dgsvcmon [ line ]

   where
       line   Device name, must start with /dev/tty.

DESCRIPTION
       dgsvcmon is the Data General remote service port monitor that
       monitors the given line for modem activity.

       The program prompts the user for remote access information. If the
       dialback feature is enabled, dialback information will be requested.
       If the dialback feature has been enabled, using svcmgr
       and all the information is valid, the user will be called back.
       Otherwise, the user connection will be established.  After the
       connection has been correctly established the user will be prompted
       with a menu.

       Operational messages are sent at as user information (user.info)
       level messages to the syslogd to be saved.

       dgsvcmon gets its modem information, password information, and
       dialback information from the data stored in a structure accessible
       through /dev/fe by svcmgr.  At initial system boot time there are
       default values in the structure.  A system administrator can set
       these values so that security is enhanced.

       Named sockets are used to communicate with dgsvc_mid to share the
       modem connected to the line specified.

       Options are:

       line
         Specifies a device name to use as a communication line.
