Considerations
Each user must have an account on the remote host.
Additionally, setting up the rlogin feature on the host may
require you to modify other files. For example, on some UNIX
hosts, you include an entry in /etc/hosts and the /etc/
hosts.equiv file and, optionally, each user’s .rhosts file. Then,
when a user attempts to login to an account – using rlogin from
an LX unit that matches an entry in the etc/hosts.equiv file –
that user is automatically logged on to the host, as long as the
user has a valid user account on the targeted remote host. The
user is not prompted for a password.
The rlogin feature is disabled by default on the LX unit. For
security reasons, you might not want to use the rlogin feature
with sensitive accounts, however, since anyone who knows the
right username can log on to the host.
Associated Commands
You can enable/disable rlogin through these commands:
Config:0 >>rlogin enable
Config:0 >>no rlogin
This command specifies that the user can make a connection
using rlogin. The default is disabled.
rlogin
Log on to a host by specifying the username and host system.
fred:0>rlogin 192.168.3.4
where # username fred will be passed to the target host.
View information about an rlogin session.
InReach:0>show users
