remote [-p <port>] [-k <key>] [-a <kickaddr>] <host>
kick | exit | reset
_________________________________________________________________
Send a UDP packet to the specified host commanding it to exit
NOS, reset the processor, or force a retransmission on TCP
connections.
For this command to be accepted, the remote system must be
running the remote server. Also, the port number specified in
the remote command must match the port number given when the
server was started on the remote system.
If the port numbers do not match, or if the remote server is not
running on the target system, the command packet is ignored.
Even if the command is accepted there is no acknowledgement.
The 'kick' subcommand forces a retransmission timeout on all TCP
connections that the remote node may have with the local node.
If the '-a' option is used, connections to the specified host are
kicked instead. No key is required when using the 'kick'
subcommand.
The 'exit' and 'reset' subcommands are mainly useful for
restarting NOS on a remote unattended system after the
configuration file has been updated. The remote system should
invoke NOS automatically upon booting, preferably in an infinite
loop.
For example, under DOS the boot disk should contain the following
commands in AUTOEXEC.BAT:
:loop
NOS
goto :loop
>> Example: remote uk kick
_________________________________________________________________
remote -s [<key>]
_________________________________________________________________
The 'exit' and 'reset' subcommands of 'remote' require a
password. The password is set on a given system with the '-s'
option, and it is specified in a command to a remote system with
the '-k' option.
If no password is set with the '-s' option, then the 'exit' and
'reset' subcommands are disabled.
Note that 'remote' is an experimental feature in NOS; it is not
yet supported by any other TCP/IP implementation.
>> Example: remote -s sleutel
