10 rlogin \- remote login
28 connects your terminal on the current local host system
30 to the remote host system
35 which contains a list of \fIrhost\fR's with which it shares account names.
36 (The host names must be the standard names as described in
40 as the same user on an equivalent host, you don't need
42 Each user may also have a private equivalence list in a file \&.rhosts
43 in his login directory. Each line in this file should contain an \fIrhost\fP
44 and a \fIusername\fP separated by a space, giving additional cases
45 where logins without passwords are to be permitted.
46 If the originating user is not equivalent to the remote user, then
47 a login and password will be prompted for on the remote machine as in
49 To avoid some security problems, the \&.rhosts file must be owned by
50 either the remote user or root.
52 The remote terminal type is the same as your local
53 terminal type (as given in your environment TERM variable).
54 The terminal or window size is also copied to the remote system
55 if the server supports the option,
56 and changes in size are reflected as well.
57 All echoing takes place at the remote site, so that (except for
58 delays) the rlogin is transparent. Flow control via ^S and ^Q and
59 flushing of input and output on interrupts are handled properly.
62 allows an eight-bit input data path at all times;
63 otherwise parity bits are stripped except when the remote side's
64 stop and start characters are other than ^S/^Q.
67 allows the rlogin session to be run in litout mode.
68 A line of the form ``~.'' disconnects from the remote host, where
69 ``~'' is the escape character.
70 Similarly, the line ``~^Z'' (where ^Z, control-Z, is the suspend character)
71 will suspend the rlogin session.
72 Substitution of the delayed-suspend character (normally ^Y)
73 for the suspend character suspends the send portion of the rlogin,
74 but allows output from the remote system.
75 A different escape character may
79 There is no space separating this option flag and the argument
82 option the escape can be turned off.
87 More of the environment should be propagated.
