Name
rlogind
Synopsis
rlogind [options]
Description
TCP/IP command. Server for the rlogin program, providing a remote login facility, with authentication based on privileged port numbers from trusted hosts. rlogind is invoked by inetd when a remote login connection is requested and executes the following protocol:
The server checks the client’s source port. If the port is not in the range 0-023, the server aborts the connection.
The server checks the client’s source address and requests the corresponding hostname. If the hostname cannot be determined, the dot-notation representation of the host address is used.
The login process propagates the client terminal’s baud rate and terminal type, as found in the environment variable, TERM.
Options
- -a
Verify hostname.
- -l
Do not authenticate hosts via a nonroot .rhosts file.
- -n
Suppress keep-alive messages.
