ChorusOS 4.0 Introduction

Communicating with the Target Using rsh

When the ChorusOS operating system image including the RSH feature is booted on the target machine, the C_INIT daemon interprets the commands sent from the host through rsh (see the rshd manpage on your host). For example, to list the options available, type:


% rsh target help

The following information is displayed by the C_INIT actor:
