- Summary
- The rsh-server package contains a set of programs which allow users
to run commmands on remote machines, login to other machines and copy
files between machines (rsh, rlogin and rcp). All three of these
commands use rhosts style authentication. This package contains the
servers needed for all of these services. It also contains a server
for rexec, an alternate method of executing remote commands.
All of these servers are run by inetd and configured using
/etc/inetd.conf and PAM. The rexecd server is disabled by default,
but the other servers are enabled.
The rsh-server package should be installed to enable remote access
from other machines.
