Need help setting default login hosts for users

Hi --

I'm kinda new to this, so bear with me. I've just put a second host on our
network, which "network" consists of two Sun workstation/servers and about
15 ASCII terminals hooked up to a Portmaster.

I would like to assign all dumb-terminal users a default host when they login.
Preferably, I would like to do this by _user_, but in a pinch I'll settle
for setting it by _port_. I've tried setting this up in the "User Table",
"Hosts Table" and the setup menu for the individual ports, but with no avail.

I've read through the docs and can't seem to find anything (understandable,
anyway) about how to do this. I know this should be easy, so what am I doing
wrong?

Advice/comments/flames/commiserations gratefully accepted. Let me know what
information you require about my Portmaster setup.

Thanks in advance,

Pete Williams <petew@lexis-nexis.com>
