rcmd - remote command execution

rcmd [host [command [args...]]]

Description

The rcmd command arranges for execution of a command specified on the input line by the host machine.

On the host machine, a thread started by lib/srv monitors the rstyx port for remote command execution requests sent by rcmd.


Note: The default host is hati (hardcoded). If no command is provided, the client gets a remote Inferno shell.
The rcmd command will use the certificate in the file

/usr/<username>/keyring/net!machine

if that file exists. Otherwise, rcmd will attempt to find a certificate in the file

/usr/<username>/keyring/default
