RHOSTS(5) Minix Programmer's Manual RHOSTS(5)
|
|
|
|
|
|
NAME
|
|
rhosts, hosts.equiv - trusted remote users or hosts
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
~user/.rhosts
|
|
/etc/hosts.equiv
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
The per user .rhosts and the per system hosts.equiv files can be used to
|
|
allow users to use rlogin or rsh without a password. The remote login
|
|
services first check the system wide /etc/hosts.equiv file and then the
|
|
~user/.rhosts of the intended user. Both files contain lines of one of
|
|
two forms:
|
|
|
|
host
|
|
host ruser
|
|
|
|
The first form tells that any user from host is allowed to login to this
|
|
system under the same name. The second form allows ruser from host to
|
|
login.
|
|
|
|
The .rhosts file is checked to be owned by user or root, and only its
|
|
owner may be able to write it.
|
|
|
|
SEE ALSO
|
|
rlogin(1), rsh(1).
|
|
|
|
NOTES
|
|
Minix has no restrictions on becoming super-user remotely. Other systems
|
|
usually do.
