====== Winlink Secure Login ====== * [[http://www.winlink.org/content/secure_login_deadline_announcement | Secure Login Deadline Announcement]] * Winlink 2000 secure login is supported in the client programs (not wl2kax25d) if the WL2K web mail password is configured. * This can be done in the wl2k.conf file, or with the command line options %%-P or --wl2k-passwd%%. * Thanks to Brian WB4ES for providing the patch to enable Winlink Secure Login for paclink-unix * This patch was applied to paclink-unix source May 2013. * To determine if your version of paclink-unix supports Winlink Secure Login type 'wl2ktelnet -?' and look for this line: -P --wl2k-passwd Set password for WL2K secure login * **Note:** enabling secure login is a 2 step process. * You must must first go to the Winlink site & update your Winlink account * You must either use a command line parameter or the config file entry for wl2k password. ===== Example config file entry ====== * The config file exists in /usr/local/etc/wl2k.conf # Winlink 2000 secure login password # If you have a WL2K password and have enabled secure login, # you must provide that password in order to successfully connect. wl2k-password=your_password ===== Example session ===== * An example session using wl2ktelnet & sending a Winlink message addressed to myself * Note the 2 consecutive lines containing **;PQ** and **Challenge received:** ==== Sending a Message ==== $ wl2ktelnet Connecting to server.winlink.org 8772 ...
