I use procServ just as Mark Rivers does. I make shell aliases to:
(a) invoke the initial procServ session; (b) connect to a session in
progress. Ralph Lange kindly added the '-allow' option for non-local
telnet access. So if you don't need the other features he mentions,
procServ alone is a minimal but sufficient solution for a small
installation and provides a 'common interface' if you have it invoke
the telnet for the VME IOCs (yes, telnet to telnet).

provServ runs the IOC and provides access through local telnet.
conserver provides the common interface to both soft and VME IOCs,
handles user authentification, read-only vs. read/write access, time
stamped logging, playback of recent console output (without screwing
up the log file), and more.

Hi,
Thanks. Yes, I'm not sure we would need to use conserver if we had
procServ. I get the impression that the only reason other sites had the
IOC->procServ->conserver layering was to preserve to conserver
interface.
Cheers,
Matthew

Subject: RE: Console access and managing soft IOCs
We recently started using procServ for both our VME IOCs and
soft IOCs. It's great, since multiple users can be seeing
the console at once, and logging is done. The VME IOCs are
connected to terminal servers, so the procServ process for
> them is a telnet session to the particular terminal server port.
