- Remote Shell
-
-
- RemoteShell is an ActiveX Control that allows a VB 5.0 program (or any other program
- capable of utilizing ActiveX controls) to log on to a Unix system and
- execute a remote command. This control is very handy for executing scripts or
- programs on a Unix machine and retrieving the results.
-
- Using RemoteShell
-
- You will need to configure your Unix machine to allow for a remote shell login
- for the user name you select. For the Remote Shell to work, your machine name
- and the user name must be paired together in either the /etc/host.equiv file on the
- remote host or in the .rhosts file in the user's home directory on the remote host.
- In addition, if your machine name is used in the /etc/hosts.equiv or the .rhosts file,
- your machine name must be resolved to an IP address by a domain name server or your
- machine name and IP address must be paired together in the /etc/hosts file on the
- remote host.
