If you use a line-mode Z39.50 client, follow the following procedure to connect with the CGP server:

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Z> authentication z39/password   ---> (hit ‘Enter’)
Authentication set to Open z39/password   ---> (System response)
Z> open tcp:Z3950.catalog.gpo.gov:9991/GPO01PUB   ---> (hit ‘Enter’)
Connecting … OK
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
