Editing Remote Shell (section)

==Example==
As an example of rsh use, the following executes the command ''mkdir testdir'' as user ''remoteuser'' on the computer ''host.example.com'' running a UNIX-like system:

<syntaxhighlight lang="console">
$ rsh -l remoteuser host.example.com "mkdir testdir"
</syntaxhighlight>

After the command has finished rsh terminates. If no command is specified then rsh will log in on the remote system using [[rlogin]]. The network location of the remote computer is looked up using the [[Domain Name System]].
