On the SUN workstation the X11 OSF/Motif window system is used to provide virtual terminals or displays. For those who are not familiar with UNIX systems this section tries to provide a very basic introduction. For more information, the interested user is referred to the various UNIX or SUN publications. A few copies of these manuals and other documentation are available through OSC Helpdesk. More information can be found on-line (URL http://www.eso.org/it/, item Unix/UNIX help for Users) <P> <BR><HR> <!--Table of Child-Links--> <A NAME="CHILD_LINKS"> </A> <UL> <LI><A NAME="tex2html3206" HREF="node208.html">Login Procedures</A> </UL> <!--End of Table of Child-Links--> <BR><HR> <ADDRESS> <I>Petra Nass</I> <BR><I>1999-06-09</I> </ADDRESS> </BODY> </HTML>
