Winsock RSHD/NT Remote Shell Daemon for Windows NT Version 2
Copyright 1995 Denicomp Systems
All rights reserved
Winsock RSHD/NT is the Windows NT version of the Unix Remote Shell Daemon.
It accepts requests from remote hosts (Unix or other PC's) via the standard
"rsh" command and executes them on the PC running Winsock RSHD/NT. It also
allows file copying to and from the PC via the standard "rcp" command. It
runs as a Windows NT service.
A special "SendKeys" extension allows some remote control of Windows programs
through the standard "rsh" command, even from Unix.
Security can also be enforced by specifying which hosts and/or users can access
the PC through Winsock RSHD/NT.
Files can be copied to and from the PC via "rcp" from Unix hosts or other PC's
on the network. Remote copy support includes support for wildcard copies and
recursive copies of entire directory trees.
If you are using Windows 3.1 on your network also and your TCP/IP stack does
not include the "rsh" and/or "rcp" utilities, you can use Winsock RCP/RSH,
available also from Denicomp Systems. These are Windows Sockets versions of
these two utilities. They are available in both 16-bit and 32-bit versions.
The 32-bit version works under Windows 95 and Windows NT.
INSTALLATION
------------
If you received Winsock RSHD/NT on diskette, insert the diskette into your
diskette drive.
If you received Winsock RSHD/NT as a ZIP file, create a directory and use
PKUNZIP to uncompress the distribution file into that directory.
Then use File/Run from the Windows NT Program Manager menu. Enter the drive and
directory name that contains the uncompressed files, followed by "SETUP".
If Winsock RSHD/NT is on a diskette in your A: drive, type "A:SETUP", for
example.
If you uncompressed Winsock RSHD/NT from a ZIP file and you uncompressed it
into the directory C:\RSHD, type "C:\RSHD\SETUP".
Verify that the Source drive and directory is correct. This is the drive and
directory that contains the Winsock RSHD/NT distirbution files.
Specify a destination drive and directory to install to and click on Install.
It should NOT be the same directory in which you uncompressed the
distribution file.
Winsock RSHD/NT will be installed in the specified directory and the service
will be installed in Windows NT's list of services. The service will also
be started.
You can select whether or not you want Windows NT to start the service each
time Windows NT starts. If you select No, you must manually Winsock RSHD/NT
each time you boot Windows NT. You can use the Windows NT Control Panel to
do this or the "wrshdctl" utility provided.
