*** 57,77 **** /etc/hosts.equiv. See hosts(4) and hosts.equiv(4). Once the source port and address have been checked, in.rlogind allocates a pseudo-terminal and manipulates file descriptors so that ! the slave half of the pseudo-terminal becomes the stdin, stdout, and ! stderr for a login process. The login process is an instance of the ! login(1) program, invoked with the -r. The login process then proceeds with the pam(3PAM) authentication process. See SECURITY below. If automatic authentication fails, it reprompts the user to login. ! The parent of the login process manipulates the master side of the pseudo-terminal, operating as an intermediary between the login process and the client instance of the rlogin program. In normal operation, a packet protocol is invoked to provide Ctrl-S and Ctrl-Q type facilities and propagate interrupt signals to the remote programs. The login process propagates the client terminal's baud rate and terminal type, --- 57,77 ---- /etc/hosts.equiv. See hosts(4) and hosts.equiv(4).
