Class RLoginClient
As with virtually all of the client classes in com.oroinc.net, this class derives from SocketClient. But it relies on the connection methods defined in RcommandClient which ensure that the local Socket will originate from an acceptable rshell port. The way to use RLoginClient is to first connect to the server, call the rlogin() method, and then fetch the connection's input and output streams. Interaction with the remote command is controlled entirely through the I/O streams. Once you have finished processing the streams, you should invoke disconnect() to clean up properly.
The standard output and standard error streams of the remote process are transmitted over the same connection, readable from the input stream returned by getInputStream() . Unlike RExecClient and RCommandClient, it is not possible to tell the rlogind daemon to return the standard error stream over a separate connection. getErrorStream() will always return null. The standard input of the remote process can be written to through the output stream returned by getOutputSream() .

rlogin
public void rlogin(String localUsername, String remoteUsername, String terminalType, int terminalSpeed) throws IOException Logins into a remote machine through the rlogind daemon on the server to which the RLoginClient is connected. After calling this method, you may interact with the remote login shell through its standard input and output streams. Standard error is sent over the same stream as standard output. You will typically be able to detect the termination of the remote login shell after reaching end of file on its standard output (accessible through getInputStream() . Disconnecting from the server or closing the process streams before reaching end of file will terminate the remote login shell in most cases.If user authentication fails, the rlogind daemon will request that a password be entered interactively. You will be able to read the prompt from the output stream of the RLoginClient and write the password to the input stream of the RLoginClient.
- Parameters:
localUsername
- The user account on the local machine that is trying to login to the remote host.remoteUsername
- The account name on the server that is being logged in to.terminalType
- The name of the user's terminal (e.g., "vt100", "network", etc.)terminalSpeed
- The speed of the user's terminal, expressed as a baud rate or bps (e.g., 9600 or 38400)- Throws:
IOException
- If the rlogin() attempt fails. The exception will contain a message indicating the nature of the failure.
