remote login
rlogin [-8dE] [-e char] [-l username] host
- -8
- Allow an eight-bit input data path at all times. Without
this option, parity bits are stripped whenever the remote
side's stop and start characters are ^S and
^Q.
- -d
- Turn on socket debugging on the TCP sockets
used for communication with the remote host. See
setsockopt().
- -E
- Stop any character from being recognized as an escape
character. When used with -8, this provides a
completely transparent connection.
- -e char
- Use the specified character as the escape character
(default is ~). You can specify this as a literal
character or as an octal value in the form
\nnn.
- -l username
- Log in with this user ID instead of the current user ID.
- host
- The official name, an alias, or the Internet address of
a remote host.
The rlogin utility starts a terminal session on
the specified remote host. To validate the login ID,
rlogin uses the standard Berkeley
rhosts authorization mechanism.
Once you're connected, typing:
escape_char .
disconnects you from the remote host.
By default, the tilde (~) character is the escape
character.
All echoing takes place at the remote site, so that (except
for delays) the rlogin is transparent. Flow
control via ^S and ^Q and flushing of
input and output on interrupts are handled properly.
- TERM
- Determines the user's terminal type.
