RMTnnnn|REMOTEnn
Defines the RJE workstation requesting signon.
Note: The long form (REMOTEnn) is only valid for RJE workstations 1 through 99.
password1
Defines the password established at initialization or changed by the operator for that line. If the line has a password, then password1 is required.

To establish password1, specify the LINE(nnnn) JES2 initialization statement. You can change this password through the $T LINE(nnnn) command.

newpass
Specifies the password used by the Resource Access Control Facility (RACF®) to change the password of this remote. If RACF is not active, you cannot change the remote's password in this way. See Providing security for JES2 for information about using RACF to control RJE workstations.

If you are using RACF to control the RJE workstations, you must specify newpass the first time this remote issues a logon or signon. Otherwise, RACF will reject the access attempt. See Providing security for JES2 for information about defining an RJE workstation to RACF.

Password2
Defines the password maintained by RACF unless you use JES2 remote password control. If you use JES2 remote password control, JES2 establishes this password through a RMT(nnnn) initialization statement, or through a $ADD RMT(nnnn) command or a $T RMT(nnnn) command.

If the terminal has a password, then password2 is required to ensure that the RJE workstation signing on is a valid workstation.
