4.3 Berkeley r-tools

The university of Berkeley has developed its own set of networking applications, of which the most important are:

rlogin:
Interactive login into remote host, similar to telnet.
rsh:
Execute command on remote host. Stdin is read from the local stdin, stdout and stderr of the remote command are returnet to the local host.
rcp:
Copy file from local to remote machine or vice versa. The difference to ftp is that rcp is not used interactively but via commandline-arguments similar to the cp-command.

There are several prerequirements and security-issues to be paid attention when using the Berkeley R-Tools.
