37.Sh NAME
38.Nm rshd
39.Nd remote shell server
40.Sh SYNOPSIS
41.Nm
42.Op Fl aiklnvxPL
43.Op Fl p Ar port
44.Sh DESCRIPTION
45.Nm
46is the server for
47the
48.Xr rsh 1
49program. It provides an authenticated remote command execution
50service.  Supported options are:
51.Bl -tag -width Ds
52.It Xo
53.Fl n ,
54.Fl Fl no-keepalive
55.Xc
56Disables keep-alive messages.
57Keep-alives are packets sent at certain intervals to make sure that the
58client is still there, even when it doesn't send any data.
59.It Xo
60.Fl k ,
61.Fl Fl kerberos
62.Xc
63Assume that clients connecting to this server will use some form of
64Kerberos authentication. See the
65.Sx EXAMPLES
66section for a sample
67.Xr inetd.conf 5
68configuration.
69.It Xo
70.Fl x ,
71.Fl Fl encrypt
72.Xc
73For Kerberos 4 this means that the connections are encrypted. Kerberos
745 can negotiate encryption even without this option, but if it's
75present
76.Nm
77will deny unencrypted connections. This option implies
78.Fl k .
79.\".It Xo
80.\".Fl l ,
81.\".Fl Fl no-rhosts
82.\".Xc
83.\"When using old port-based authentication, the user's
84.\".Pa .rhosts
85.\"files are normally checked. This option disables this.
86.It Xo
87.Fl v ,
88.Fl Fl vacuous
89.Xc
90If the connecting client does not use any Kerberised authentication,
91print a message that complains about this fact, and exit. This is
92helpful if you want to move away from old port-based authentication.
93.It Xo
94.Fl P
95.Xc
96When using the AFS filesystem, users' authentication tokens are put in
97something called a PAG (Process Authentication Group). Multiple
98processes can share a PAG, but normally each login session has its own
99PAG. This option disables the
100.Fn setpag
101call, so all tokens will be put in the default (uid-based) PAG, making
102it possible to share tokens between sessions. This is only useful in
103peculiar environments, such as some batch systems.
104.It Xo
105.Fl i ,
106.Fl Fl no-inetd
107.Xc
108The
109.Fl i
110option will cause
111.Nm
112to create a socket, instead of assuming that its stdin came from
113.Xr inetd 8 .
114This is mostly useful for debugging.
115.It Xo
116.Fl p Ar port ,
117.Fl Fl port= Ns Ar port
118.Xc
119Port to use with
120.Fl i .
121.It Xo
122.Fl a
123.Xc
124This flag is for backwards compatibility only.
125.It Xo
126.Fl L
127.Xc
128This flag enables logging of connections to
129.Xr syslogd 8 .
130This option is always on in this implementation.

138.Sh EXAMPLES
139The following can be used to enable Kerberised rsh in
140.Xr inetd.cond 5 ,
141while disabling non-Kerberised connections:
