        !            13: ? e.g. book catalog, serial/journals database, personnel database.
        !            14: ? Because of the proprietary and restricted nature of some of 
        !            15: ? the databases, the following registration method is used
        !            16: ? to provide confident identification of individuals.
        !            17: ? 
        !            18: ?    -Use this option of the library command to choose

        !            20: ? 
        !            21: ?    -After choosing your password, we will send you mail 
        !            22: ?     (paper or electronic) acknowledging your request
        !            23: ?     with a random confirmation number.
        !            24: ? 
        !            25: ?    -Use this option of the library command again to resubmit
        !            26: ?     your chosen password and submit the confirmation number.
        !            27: ?

        !            32: 
        !            33: Enter a password (of your own invention) which will become your
        !            34: AT&T Library Network password.  For security reasons, we recommend
        !            35: that you do NOT use your UNIX system login password.  Note
        !            36: that the password can NOT include spaces.
        !            37: 
        !            38: Library Network Password +1
        !            39: ? This password is required. Presently it is only used when you use
        !            40: ? the "linus" login on mhuxd. It is strongly recommended that it NOT
        !            41: ? be your UNIX system password.  You can change your password
        !            42: ? as often as you like.
        !            43: 
        !            44: If you are just starting the two step process involved in registering

        !            49: confirmation number by paper mail. Please enter that number below.
        !            50: 
        !            51: confirmation number *1
        !            52: ? The confirmation number required here would have been sent to you
        !            53: ? after you first used this request option. It is a random number that
        !            54: ? the system uses to track your request - and confirm the security of
        !            55: ? the registration procedure.
