    RLOGIN(1C)	    UNIX Programmer's Manual	       RLOGIN(1C)

    NAME
         rlogin - remote login

    SYNOPSIS
         rlogin rhost [ -ec ] [ -8 ] [ -L ] [ -l username ]
         rhost [ -ec ] [ -8 ] [ -L ] [ -l username ]

    DESCRIPTION
         Rlogin connects your terminal on the current local host sys-
         tem lhost to the remote host system rhost.

         Each host has a file /etc/hosts.equiv which contains a list
         of rhost's with which it shares account names.  (The host
         names must be the standard names as described in rsh(1C).)
         When you rlogin as the same user on an equivalent host, you
         don't need to give a password.  Each user may also have a
         private equivalence list in a file .rhosts in his login
         directory.  Each line in this file should contain an rhost
         and a username separated by a space, giving additional cases
         where logins without passwords are to be permitted.  If the
         originating user is not equivalent to the remote user, then
         a login and password will be prompted for on the remote
         machine as in login(1).  To avoid some security problems,
         the .rhosts file must be owned by either the remote user or
         root.

         The remote terminal type is the same as your local terminal
         type (as given in your environment TERM variable).  The ter-
         minal or window size is also copied to the remote system if
         the server supports the option, and changes in size are
         reflected as well.  All echoing takes place at the remote
         site, so that (except for delays) the rlogin is transparent.
         Flow control via ^S and ^Q and flushing of input and output
         on interrupts are handled properly.  The optional argument
         -8 allows an eight-bit input data path at all times; other-
         wise parity bits are stripped except when the remote side's
         stop and start characters are other than ^S/^Q.  The argu-
         ment -L allows the rlogin session to be run in litout mode.
         A line of the form ``~.'' disconnects from the remote host,
         where ``~'' is the escape character.  Similarly, the line
         ``~^Z'' (where ^Z, control-Z, is the suspend character) will
         suspend the rlogin session.  Substitution of the delayed-
         suspend character (normally ^Y) for the suspend character
         suspends the send portion of the rlogin, but allows output
         from the remote system.  A different escape character may be
         specified by the -e option.  There is no space separating
         this option flag and the argument character.
