Examples of connecting to Replication Server

You can connect to Replication Server by logging in to the security mechanism and then logging in to Replication Server, or you can log directly in to Replication Server.

You must include the -S flag to identify the principal user. Some sample logins follow.

Connecting to Replication Server from the security mechanism

To log in first to the DCE security mechanism and then to Replication Server, you can follow these steps:

Log in to the DCE security mechanism and receive a credential:
- For DCE, enter
```
dce_login user_name password
```
- For Kerberos, enter
```
kinit user_name password
```

For DCE, enter

isql -Srs_server_name -Vsecurity_option

For Kerberos, enter

isql -Srs_server_name -Vsecurity_option

When using DCE, if you want to log in as another user, you must include the -U and -K options.

Connecting to Replication Server from outside security

To connect to Replication Server from outside the security mechanism, you can enter:

For DCE, enter

isql -Srs_server_name -Uuser_name 
     -Kkeytab_file

For Kerberos, enter
```
isql -Srs-server_name -Yuser_name
```
