rlogin
The rlogin
command in Linux is a deprecated command that was used to log in to a remote system from a local system. It is a simple protocol that uses unencrypted passwords. This makes it vulnerable to attacks, such as password sniffing.
Instead of using the rlogin
command, you should use the ssh
command to log in to a remote system from a local system. The ssh
command is a more secure and efficient way to log in to a remote system from a local system. It is also supported by most Linux distributions.
