RHOSTS(5) Linux Programmer's Manual RHOSTS(5)
NAME
$HOME/.rhosts - grants or denies password-free r-command access to a
specific user account
DESCRIPTION
The .rhosts file allows or denies a user who has an account on the
local host to use the r-commands (e.g. rlogin, rsh or rcp) without sup-
plying a password.
The file uses the following format:
hostname [username]
Such an entry grants password-free r-command access for the user with
the login name username from the remote host hostname. If no user name
is specified, the user must have the same login name on the remote host
and the local host. For security reasons you should always use the FQDN
of the hostname and not the short hostname.
Netgroups can be specified by preceeding the netgroup by an @ sign.
The .rhosts file must have permissions 600 (that is, readable and
writable only by the owner).
