Overview
Remsh allows a user to connect to the remote system and execute a command on
that remote system. Output from the remote command is sent to remsh's standard
output so the user can see the results of their command.
Remsh is the same service as rsh on BSD Unix systems. The name was changed due
to a conflict with the existing command rsh (restricted shell) on System V
Unix systems.
Using the REMSH Client
The remsh client allows an HP3000 "client" system connect to a remote "server"
system and execute a single command on that system. The server can be any
system connected to the network that has implemented the remshd daemon using
TCP/IP. The user may run the remsh client from either the POSIX shell or from
the MPE/iX prompt.
REMSH Client Requirements
The REMSH Client requires version C.60.00 or C.55.00 Power Patch 3 or later of
the MPE/iX Fundamental Operating System and a supported TCP/IP network link.
To install the REMSH Client, the system manager must update the file
SERVICES.NET.SYS. SERVICES.NET.SYS is the Internet Services file that
associates an official service name and alias with the port number and
protocol the service uses.
Documentation
Documentation for the REMSH Client can be found in the Configuring and
Managing MPE/iX Internet Services that is shipped with the MPE/iX FOS.
Functionality details of the REMSH Client are in this communicator.
