Socketpipe connects over a TCP/IP socket a remote command to a local
|
|
input generation command and/or a local output processing command.
|
|
The connection is made by redirecting the input/output file descriptors
|
|
to the socket. This saves the context switching and data copying
|
|
overhead associated with piping data through ssh(1) or rsh(1).
|
|
Socketpipe must be installed on both machines and user authentication
|
|
is still performed by a command like ssh(1) or rsh(1). The
|
|
confidentiality and integrity of the data in transit is not protected
|
|
against mallicious attacks; the command is designed for use in a
|
|
trusted LAN environment.
