A customer report:
http://supportforum.sun.com/sunos/index.php?t=msg&goto=5374&rid=0#msg_5374
Indicates a minor usability problem with zlogin: it's possible to pass more
than one character to zlogin, perhaps in an attempt to escape the escape
character:
# zlogin -e /@ myzone
This sets the escape character to '/', not @ as was intended.
zlogin should only allow one escape character, and otherwise emit a message.
Additionally, we should consider echoing the escape character back to the
user, as with telnet. One idea:
# zlogin -e /@ myzone
[Connected to zone 'myzone' pts/6. Escape character is '/']
# zlogin -E myzone
[Connected to zone 'myzone' pts/6. Escape character disabled]
This would also aid the user in cases where they aren't invoking zlogin
directly (as with the various 'console server' solutions people have come
up with).
