- Many users have asked about documentation for the restricted bourne shell /usr/lib/rsh. It is mostly available in sh(1):
-
- PATH The search path for commands (see Execu-
- tion below). The user may not change
- PATH if executing under rsh.
-
- cd[ arg ] Change the current directory to argument.
- ...
- The cd command may not be executed by rsh.
-
- This is SunOS 4.1.2, in earlier versions it is there but commented out (look for .\" at the beginning of the line).
-
