Start-up worksheet for WAVE

 In order to use WAVE, you must know how to log onto and off of your computer (and the WAVE host, if they are not the same computer). Answers to the questions on this worksheet may also be needed. If you need help, see the notes keyed to each question below, or consult your system administrator. Print a copy of this page, and record your answers in the spaces provided for future reference.         
1. What command (if any) must be run on your computer to start the X server and the window manager, and open a terminal window?                                
2. What command (if any) must be run on the WAVE host to initialize the database environment (the DB and DBCAL environment variables)?                                
3. If you have a one- or two-button mouse, how do you simulate a middle mouse button click?                                
4. If you have a one-button mouse, how do you simulate a right mouse button click?                                
Skip the remaining questions if your computer is also the WAVE host.
5. What is your computer's name?                                
6. What is the name of the WAVE host?                                
7. What command (if any) must be run on your computer to permit the WAVE host to create a window on your computer's display?                                
8. What command must be run on your computer to log onto the WAVE host?                                
9. What command (if any) must be run on the WAVE host to redirect its output to your computer's display?
