TCP/IP Remote Shell Service, the server side of the TCP/IP tool Rsh.exe, provides a command-line shell or single command execution service for remote users.
RshSvc works like the UNIX Remote Shell Service. Any computer with an RSH client, which exists for nearly all major operating systems, can access this service.
Caution
The security model of RshSvc is similar to that of its UNIX equivalent. Because of this, users running RSH on remote computers, beyond those specified in the RHOSTS file, might be able to gain access to a computer running RshSvc.
