You can redirect the input, output, or error streams using the / INPUT, / OUTPUT, or / ERROR qualifiers, respectively. Normally, RSHELL uses SYS$INPUT, SYS$OUTPUT, and SYS$ERROR for input, output, and error. You can modify where the remote command standard input is read and where standard output and standard errors are written.

Note! If you specify /PASSWORD without a value, you are prompted for the password. $ RSHELL /USERNAME=zeno /PASSWORD=race ls -l

The command format for specifying a password is as follows: REXEC is identical in function to RSHELL, except that it uses a user name and password to perform authentication rather than equivalence files. When a password is specified, rather than connecting to the RSHELL server, the RSHELL client connects to the REXEC server on the remote system. If 'R' services equivalence files are not set up, you can still use the RSHELL command by specifying the / PASSWORD qualifier. To specify a different remote user name, use the / USERNAME qualifier as shown in the following command: This command assumes that the remote user name is the same as the local user name.

The following example shows how to use RSHELL to get a directory listing on the UNIX system from a local OpenVMS system: See the 'R' Services Authentication and the Host Equivalences sections. RSHELL uses the same authentication scheme as other 'R' services. The RSHELL server checks the 'R' services equivalence files to determine whether or not you are authorized to execute commands remotely.

Using RSHELLīefore you can execute a remote command successfully, the remote system must determine that you are allowed to do so.

Output from the remote command is copied back over the network and displayed on SYS$OUTPUT. If the remote command requires input, data is read from SYS$INPUT and sent over the network to the remote process. RSHELL connects to the specified host and creates an RSHELL server process to execute the commands you enter. The RSHELL utility lets you execute commands on remote hosts.
