another question: what is getty prog?
You can do that easily in C
... there is "getpass" routine for get your input without echoing ....
use gethostbyname , connect , send , recv etc to connect to the remote host ......
getty prog is useful here ...
As far as I remember "rlogin" source was included in one book by W RICHARD STEVENS
( unix n/w programming ???? ) .......
If you look at the RFC 1282 , it will give info about how to format the messages between the
client/server .......
telnet's implementation is different from rlogin's

Subject: about remote loginHello... I am currently researching about remote login and came across Python's Telnetlib. However, I cannot find a similar library in C. Does anyone know if there is an equivalent library in C or the equivalent functions can be implemented in C.Attached here is the sample code in Python that I want to implement in C:import getpass
import sys
import telnetlib
HOST = "localhost"
user = raw_input("Enter your remote account: ")
password = getpass.getpass()
tn = telnetlib.Telnet(HOST)
tn.read_until("login: ")
tn.write(user + "\n")
if password:
tn.read_until("Password: ")
tn.write(password + "\n")
tn.write("ls\n")
tn.write("exit\n")thanks very much
print tn.read_all()
