Line 6:
'''rlogin''' is a [[software utility]] for [[Unix-like]] computer [[operating system]]s that was first distributed as part of the [[Berkeley Software Distribution|4.2BSD]] release. rlogin allows users to log in on another [[Server (computing)|host]] via a [[computer network|network]], using [[Transmission Control Protocol|TCP]] [[TCP and UDP port|port]] 513.
rlogin is also the name of the [[application layer]] [[Communications protocol|protocol]] used by the software, part of the [[TCP/IP]] [[protocol suite]]. Authenticated users can act as if they were physically present at the computer. RFC 1282, in which it was defined, states: "The rlogin facility provides a remote-echoed, locally flow-controlled virtual terminal with proper flushing of output." rlogin communicates with a [[daemon (computer software)|daemon]], '''rlogind''', on the remote host. rlogin is similar to the [[Telnet]] command, but is not as customizable and is able to connect only to Unix-like hosts.
