rsh
The Kerberos V5 rsh program works exactly like the standard
UNIX rlogin program, with the following Kerberos features added:
- -f
- forwards a copy of your tickets to the remote host.
- -F
- forwards a copy of your tickets to the remote host, and marks them
re-forwardable from the remote host.
- -k realm
- requests tickets for the remote host in the specified realm, instead of
determining the realm itself.
- -x
- encrypts the input and output data streams (the command line is not encrypted)
For example, if your Kerberos tickets allowed you to run programs on the
host
trillium@example.com as root, you could
run the date program as follows:
shell% rsh trillium.example.com -l root -x date
This rsh session is using DES encryption for all data transmissions.

If you forwarded your Kerberos tickets, rsh automatically
destroys them when it exits. The full set of options to Kerberos V5
rsh are discussed in the Reference section of this manual.
