rlogin—remote login


rlogin [ –L ] [ –8 ] [ –ec ] [ –l username ] hostname


rlogin establishes a remote login session from your terminal to the remote machine named hostname. Hostnames are listed in the host's database, which may be contained in the /etc/hosts file, the Network Information Service (NIS) hosts map, the Internet domain name server, or a combination of these. Each host has one official name (the first name in the database entry), and, optionally, one or more nicknames. Either official hostnames or nicknames may be specified in hostname. A list of trusted hostnames can be stored in the machine's file /etc/hosts.equiv.
