Restricted shell (was Re: rsh e

In responce to the original question, which was how to customize the
environment on the remote machine using the BSD remote shell (rsh) command,
if you use C shell, your remote .cshrc is sourced, but not your .login file.
Setup what you want in your remote .cshrc file, for example:

	# ~/.cshrc
	if ($?prompt) then
		#	setup for interactive shell
		alias bye logout
	else
		#	for non-interactive shells, like rsh
		set path = ( /usr/local/bin /usr/ucb /bin /usr/bin . )
	endif
