The username and password for connections may be stored in the AO Serv Client properties file named /com/aoindustries/aoserv/client/aoserv-client.properties. The default properties look like the following:

aoserv.client.username=
aoserv.client.password=

# List of supported protocols
aoserv.client.protocols=tcp

# Socket specific parameters
aoserv.client.tcp.hostname=master.aoindustries.com
aoserv.client.tcp.port=4582
aoserv.client.tcp.connection.pool.size=8

By placing this resource in your CLASSPATH before aoserv-client.jar, you can override the default settings. Adding the username and password for your connection will avoid login prompts for the aosh and allow you to use the AOServConnector.getConnector() call to establish connections.

aoserv.client.username=my_username
aoserv.client.password=my_strong_password

# List of supported protocols
aoserv.client.protocols=tcp

# Socket specific parameters
aoserv.client.tcp.hostname=master.aoindustries.com
aoserv.client.tcp.port=4582
aoserv.client.tcp.connection.pool.size=8

First, log into the server using either SSH or Telnet, preferably SSH. Once authenticated, type:

For interactive mode:	aosh -i
For script mode:	aosh

import com.aoindustries.aoserv.client.SimpleAOClient;

// ...

SimpleAOClient aoClient=new SimpleAOClient();

// ...

import com.aoindustries.aoserv.client.*;

AOServConnector aoConn=new AOServConnector();
