rsh Starts a shell on a remote host running U
nix
.
rlogin Initiates a login on a remote host running U
nix
.
ftp Transfers files to and from a remote host using FTP
protocol.
telnet Communicates with a host using TELNET protocol.
rcp copies a file from one host to another. The command line specifies the source
host and file, followed by the destination host and file:
rcp [
sourcehost:
]
pathname
[
destinationhost:
]
pathname
If no host name is specified, the local host is assumed. In these examples, the
user must have an account with the same user name on both hosts.
rcp sqiral.c olympus:/oh4/doc/install/sqiral.c
This example copies the file sqiral.c in the current directory of the local
machine to the file sqiral.c in the directory /oh4/doc/install on a host named
olympus .
rcp sting:/usr/include/stdio.h test
This example copies the file /usr/include/stdio.h from a remote machine sting to
the file test on the local machine.
rcp puppy:temp_vi sting:temp_vi
This example copies the file temp_vi from the remote machine named puppy to a
file with the same name on a remote machine named sting in the user’s home
directory on each machine.
rcp -r sting:/usr/include/* localinclude
This command is an example of recursive copying. It copies all
files and directories from /usr/include on the remote machine sting to the
directory localinclude on the local host.
rsh connects your terminal to a remote host and executes the commands you
specify. Like rcp , this network utility assumes that the user has accounts under
the same user name on both the remote and local host.
If a command is specified, the
rsh program takes the command as an argument.
For example, to find the load average on another machine, enter this
command:
rsh
hostname
uptime
