NAME
rshd - remote shell daemon
DESCRIPTION
The filer has UNIX-compatible remote shell capability that enables you to execute
certain filer commands from a UNIX command line or shell script. It also enables
you to use a remote shell application on a PC to enter filer commands.
The /etc/hosts.equiv file controls which hosts have access to the filer remote
shell. The hosts listed in the /etc/hosts.equiv file are called trusted hosts. The
filer accepts commands from the filers administrative users only if the com-
mands are entered through a remote shell.
To see a list of filer commands that can be executed through rsh, enter the rsh ?
command on the trusted host.
EXAMPLE
The following example shows how to enter the version command from a trusted
host named adminhost through a remote shell:
adminhost% rsh -l root filer version
