                     32: .SH DESCRIPTION
                     33: .I Rlogin
                     34: connects your terminal on the current local host system
                     35: .I lhost
                     36: to the remote host system
                     37: .I rhost.
                     38: .PP
                     39: Each host has a file
                     40: .I /etc/hosts.equiv
                     41: which contains a list of \fIrhost\fR's with which it shares account names.
                     42: (The host names must be the standard names as described in
                     43: .IR rsh (1C).)
                     44: When you
                     45: .I rlogin
                     46: as the same user on an equivalent host, you don't need
                     47: to give a password.
                     48: Each user may also have a private equivalence list in a file \&.rhosts
                     49: in his login directory.  Each line in this file should contain an \fIrhost\fP
                     50: and a \fIusername\fP separated by a space, giving additional cases
                     51: where logins without passwords are to be permitted.
                     52: If the originating user is not equivalent to the remote user, then
                     53: a login and password will be prompted for on the remote machine as in
                     54: .IR login (1).
                     55: To avoid some security problems, the \&.rhosts file must be owned by
                     56: either the remote user or root.
                     57: .PP
                     58: The remote terminal type is the same as your local
                     59: terminal type (as given in your environment TERM variable).
                     60: The terminal or window size is also copied to the remote system
                     61: if the server supports the option,
                     62: and changes in size are reflected as well.
                     63: All echoing takes place at the remote site, so that (except for
                     64: delays) the rlogin is transparent.  Flow control via ^S and ^Q and
                     65: flushing of input and output on interrupts are handled properly.
                     66: The optional argument
                     67: .B \-8
                     68: allows an eight-bit input data path at all times;
                     69: otherwise parity bits are stripped except when the remote side's
                     70: stop and start characters are other than ^S/^Q.
                     71: The argument
                     72: .B \-L
                     73: allows the rlogin session to be run in litout mode.
                     74: A line of the form ``~.'' disconnects from the remote host, where
                     75: ``~'' is the escape character.
                     76: Similarly, the line ``~^Z'' (where ^Z, control-Z, is the suspend character)
                     77: will suspend the rlogin session.
                     78: Substitution of the delayed-suspend character (normally ^Y)
                     79: for the suspend character suspends the send portion of the rlogin,
                     80: but allows output from the remote system.
                     81: A different escape character may
                     82: be specified by the
                     83: .B \-e
                     84: option.
                     85: There is no space separating this option flag and the argument
                     86: character.
