.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn rcmdsh
|
|
function
|
|
is used by normal users to execute a command on
|
|
a remote machine using an authentication scheme based
|
|
on reserved port numbers using
|
|
.Xr rshd 8
|
|
or the value of
|
|
.Fa rshprog
|
|
(if
|
|
.No non- Ns Dv NULL ) .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn rcmdsh
|
|
function
|
|
looks up the host
|
|
.Fa *ahost
|
|
using
|
|
.Xr gethostbyname 3 ,
|
|
returning \-1 if the host does not exist.
|
|
Otherwise
|
|
.Fa *ahost
|
|
is set to the standard name of the host
|
|
and a connection is established to a server
|
|
residing at the well-known Internet port
|
|
.Dq Li shell/tcp
|
|
(or whatever port is used by
|
|
.Fa rshprog ) .
|
|
The
|
|
.Fa inport
|
|
argument
|
|
is ignored; it is only included to provide an interface similar to
|
|
.Xr rcmd 3 .
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If the connection succeeds,
|
|
a socket in the
|
|
.Ux
|
|
domain of type
|
|
.Dv SOCK_STREAM
|
|
is returned to the caller, and given to the remote
|
|
command as
|
|
.Dv stdin , stdout ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Dv stderr .
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn rcmdsh
|
|
function
|
|
returns a valid socket descriptor on success.
|
|
Otherwise, \-1 is returned
|
|
and a diagnostic message is printed on the standard error.
|
|
.Sh SEE ALSO
|
|
.Xr rsh 1 ,
|
|
.Xr socketpair 2 ,
|
|
.Xr rcmd 3 ,
|
|
.Xr rshd 8
|
|
.Sh HISTORY
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn rcmdsh
|
|
function first appeared in
|
|
.Ox 2.0 ,
|
|
and made its way into
|
|
.Fx 4.6 .
|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
If
|
|
.Xr rsh 1
|
|
encounters an error, a file descriptor is still returned instead of \-1.
