NAME
zlogin - enter a zone
SYNOPSIS
! zlogin [-dCEQ] [-e c] [-l username] zonename
! zlogin [-nEQS] [-e c] [-l username] zonename utility
[argument]...
DESCRIPTION
The zlogin utility is used by the administrator to enter an operating
system zone. Only a superuser operating in the global system zone can
use this utility.
! zlogin operates in one of three modes:
Interactive Mode
! If no utility argument is given and the stdin
! file descriptor for the zlogin process is a tty
device, zlogin operates in interactive mode. In
this mode, zlogin creates a new pseudo terminal
for use within the login session. Programs
requiring a tty device, for example, vi(1),
work properly in this mode. In this mode,

The zlogin utility is used by the administrator to enter an operating

! zlogin operates in one of four modes:

zlogin invokes login(1) to provide a suitable
login session.
Non-Interactive Mode
! If a utility is specified, zlogin operates in
! non-interactive mode. This mode can be useful
! for script authors since stdin, stdout, and
! stderr are preserved and the exit status of
! utility is returned upon termination. In this
! mode, zlogin invokes su(1M) in order to set up
! the user's environment and to provide a login
! environment.
The specified command is passed as a string and
interpreted by a shell running in the non-
global zone. See rsh(1).

The following options are supported:

-l username
Specifies a different username for the zone login. If
you do not use this option, the zone username used is
"root". This option is invalid if the -C option is

Specifies quiet mode operation. In quiet mode, extra
messages indicating the the function of zlogin will not
be displayed, giving the possibility to present the
