freebsd/eBones/man/rsh.1
Geoff Rehmet 60643d379b Initial import of eBones.
(Including all changes for FreeBSD - importing the original eBones distribution
would be too complex at this stage, since I don't have access to Piero's 
CVS.)
(If you want to include eBones in your system, don't forget to include
MAKE_EBONES in /etc/make.conf.)
(This stuff is now also suppable from braae.ru.ac.za.)

Bones originally from MIT SIPB.
Original port to FreeBSD 1.x  by Piero Serini.
Moved to FreeBSD 2.0 by Doug Rabson and Geoff Rehmet.
Nice bug fixes from Doug Rabson.

.SH DESCRIPTION
.I Rsh
connects to the specified
.I host,
and executes the specified \fIcommand\fR.
.I Rsh
copies its standard input to the remote command, the standard
output of the remote command to its standard output, and the
standard error of the remote command to its standard error.
Interrupt, quit and terminate signals are propagated to the remote
command; \fIrsh\fP normally terminates when the remote command does.
.PP
The remote username used is the same as your local username,
unless you specify a different remote name with the
.B \-l
option.
Kerberos authentication is used, and authorization is determined as in
rlogin(1).
.PP
The
.B \-k
\fIrealm\fP option causes
.I rsh
to obtain tickets for the remote host in
.I realm
instead of the remote host's realm as determined by
.IR krb_realmofhost (3).
.PP
The
.B \-d
option turns on socket debugging (via \fIsetsockopt(2)\fR) on the TCP
sockets used for communication with the remote host.
.PP
The
.B \-n
option redirects input from the special device
.I /dev/null
(see the BUGS section below).
.PP
If you omit
.I command,
then instead of executing a single command, you will be logged in
on the remote host using
.IR rlogin (1).
.PP
Shell metacharacters which are not quoted are interpreted
on local machine, while quoted metacharacters are interpreted on
the remote machine.
Thus the command
.PP
\ \ \ rsh otherhost cat remotefile >> localfile
.PP
appends the remote file
.I remotefile
to the local file
.I localfile,
while
.PP
\ \ \ rsh otherhost cat remotefile ">>" otherremotefile
.PP
appends
.I remotefile
to
.I otherremotefile.
.PP
The host names for local machines are also commands in the directory
/usr/hosts; if you put this directory in your search path
then the
.B rsh
on the command line can be omitted.

.SH BUGS
If you are using
.IR csh (1)
and put a
.IR rsh (1)
in the background without redirecting its input
away from the terminal, it will block even if no reads
are posted by the remote command. If no input is desired
you should redirect the input of
.I rsh
to /dev/null using the
.B \-n
option.
.PP
You cannot run an interactive command
(like
.IR rogue (6)
or
.IR vi (1));
use
.IR rlogin (1).
.PP
Stop signals stop the local \fIrsh\fP process only; this is arguably
wrong, but currently hard to fix for reasons too complicated to
explain here.
