Each of the arguments should be a quoted string, except for the port number. The <VAR CLASS="parameter" >username</VAR > and <VAR CLASS="parameter" >password</VAR > arguments are optional and can be left out. In such a case no identification with the server will be done. It is similar to identify as user anonymous. This function returns a connection index that is needed by other Hyperwave functions. You can have multiple connections open at once. Keep in mind, that the password is not encrypted. </P ><P > See also <A HREF="function.hw-pconnect.html" ><B CLASS="function" >hw_pconnect()</B ></A >. </P ></DIV ><DIV CLASS="NAVFOOTER" ><HR ALIGN="LEFT" WIDTH="100%"><TABLE SUMMARY="Footer navigation table" WIDTH="100%" BORDER="0" CELLPADDING="0" CELLSPACING="0" ><TR ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="function.hw-close.html" ACCESSKEY="P" >Înapoi</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="34%" ALIGN="center" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="index.html" ACCESSKEY="H" >Acasã</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="right" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="function.hw-connection-info.html" ACCESSKEY="N" >Înainte</A ></TD ></TR ><TR ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="left" VALIGN="top" >hw_Close</TD ><TD WIDTH="34%" ALIGN="center" VALIGN="top" ><A HREF="ref.hw.html" ACCESSKEY="U" >Sus</A ></TD ><TD WIDTH="33%" ALIGN="right" VALIGN="top" >hw_connection_info</TD ></TR ></TABLE ></DIV ></BODY ></HTML >
