NAME¶
try-from - test program for the tcp_wrapper
SYNOPSIS¶
try-from
DESCRIPTION¶
The
try-from command can be called via a remote shell command to find out
if the hostname and address are properly recognized by the
tcp_wrapper
library, if username lookup works, and (SysV only) if the TLI on top of IP
heuristics work. Diagnostics are reported through
syslog(3) and
redirected to stderr.
Example:
rsh host /usr/sbin/try-from
