GETTING STARTED


                          GETTING STARTED


Before you can use AIX, you must first login to one of the RISC workstations. A free machine should have a prompt saying login: on the screen. At this prompt, enter your userid. AIX will then ask for your password. Enter this into the computer, and if entered correctly, you will be logged onto the RISC terminal. AIX will then display your OS prompt and wait for your command. The OS prompt displayed depends on which command interpreter (shell) you are running and any configurations installed. The default is the K-shell which uses a $ as its OS prompt. Handouts are available for more information about each of the shells.
