This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!) avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long. Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been insane otherwise.

.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.Nm rlogind

|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
.Nm Rlogind
|
|
is the server for the
|
|
.Xr rlogin 1
|
|
program. The server provides a remote login facility
|
|
with authentication based on privileged port numbers from trusted hosts.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Options supported by
|
|
.Nm rlogind :
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Ds
|
|
.It Fl D
|
|
Set TCP_NODELAY socket option. This improves responsiveness at the expense of
|
|
some additional network traffic.
|
|
.It Fl a
|
|
Ask hostname for verification.
|
|
.It Fl l
|
|
Prevent any authentication based on the user's
|
|
.Dq Pa .rhosts
|
|
file, unless the user is logging in as the superuser.
|
|
.It Fl n
|
|
Disable keep-alive messages.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The following options are valid only if Kerberos is in use:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width Ds
|
|
.It Fl k
|
|
Enable Kerberos authentication.
|
|
.It Fl v
|
|
Enable vacuous mode.
|
|
.It Fl x
|
|
Enable
|
|
.Tn DES
|
|
encryption for all data passed via the rlogin
|
|
session. This may impact response time
|
|
and CPU utilization, but provides increased security.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
.Nm Rlogind
|
|
listens for service requests at the port indicated in
|
|
the ``login'' service specification; see
|
|
.Xr services 5 .
|
|
When a service request is received the following protocol
|
|
is initiated:
|
|
.Bl -enum
|
|
.It
|
|
The server checks the client's source port.
|
|
If the port is not in the range 512-1023, the server
|
|
aborts the connection.
|
|
.It
|
|
The server checks the client's source address
|
|
and requests the corresponding host name (see
|
|
.Xr gethostbyaddr 3 ,
|
|
.Xr hosts 5
|
|
and
|
|
.Xr named 8 ) .
|
|
If the hostname cannot be determined,
|
|
the dot-notation representation of the host address is used.
|
|
If the hostname is in the same domain as the server (according to
|
|
the last two components of the domain name),
|
|
or if the
|
|
.Fl a
|
|
option is given,
|
|
the addresses for the hostname are requested,
|
|
verifying that the name and address correspond.
|
|
Normal authentication is bypassed if the address verification fails.
|
|
.El
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Once the source port and address have been checked,
|
|
.Nm rlogind
|
|
proceeds with the authentication process described in
|
|
.Xr rshd 8 .
|
|
It then allocates a pseudo terminal (see
|
|
.Xr pty 4 ) ,
|
|
and manipulates file descriptors so that the slave
|
|
half of the pseudo terminal becomes the
|
|
.Em stdin ,
|
|
.Em stdout ,
|
|
and
|
|
.Em stderr
|
|
for a login process.
|
|
The login process is an instance of the
|
|
.Xr login 1
|
|
program, invoked with the
|
|
.Fl f
|
|
option if authentication has succeeded.
|
|
If automatic authentication fails, the user is
|
|
prompted to log in as if on a standard terminal line.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
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
|
|
.Xr rlogin
|
|
program. In normal operation, the packet protocol described
|
|
in
|
|
.Xr pty 4
|
|
is invoked to provide
|
|
.Ql ^S/^Q
|
|
type facilities and propagate
|
|
interrupt signals to the remote programs. The login process
|
|
propagates the client terminal's baud rate and terminal type,
|
|
as found in the environment variable,
|
|
.Ql Ev TERM ;
|
|
see
|
|
.Xr environ 7 .
|
|
The screen or window size of the terminal is requested from the client,
|
|
and window size changes from the client are propagated to the pseudo terminal.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
Transport-level keepalive messages are enabled unless the
|
|
.Fl n
|
|
option is present.
|
|
The use of keepalive messages allows sessions to be timed out
|
|
if the client crashes or becomes unreachable.
|
|
.Sh DIAGNOSTICS
|
|
All initial diagnostic messages are indicated
|
|
by a leading byte with a value of 1,
|
|
after which any network connections are closed.
|
|
If there are no errors before
|
|
.Xr login
|
|
is invoked, a null byte is returned as in indication of success.

.Sh BUGS
|
|
The authentication procedure used here assumes the integrity
|
|
of each client machine and the connecting medium. This is
|
|
insecure, but is useful in an ``open'' environment.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
A facility to allow all data exchanges to be encrypted should be
|
|
present.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
A more extensible protocol should be used.
