-.Dt HOSTS.EQUIV 5
-.Os
-.Sh NAME
-.Nm hosts.equiv ,
-.Nm .rhosts
-.Nd trusted remote hosts and host-user pairs
-.Sh DESCRIPTION
-The
-.Nm hosts.equiv
-and
-.Nm .rhosts
-files list hosts and users which are
-.Dq trusted
-by the local host when a connection is made via
-a server that uses
-.Xr ruserok 3 .
-This mechanism bypasses password checks, and is required for access via
-.Xr rsh 1 .
-.Pp
-Each line of these files has the format:
-.Bd -unfilled -offset indent
-hostname [username]
-.Ed
-.Pp
-The
-.Ar hostname
-may be specified as a host name (typically a fully qualified host
-name in a DNS environment) or address,
-.Ar +@netgroup
-(from which only the host names are checked),
-or a
-.Sq +
-wildcard (allow all hosts).
-.Pp
-The
-.Ar username ,
-if specified, may be given as a user name on the remote host,
-.Ar +@netgroup
-(from which only the user names are checked),
-or a
-.Sq +
-wildcard (allow all remote users).
-.Pp
-If a
-.Ar username
-is specified, only that user from the specified host may log in to the
-local machine.
-If a
-.Ar username
-is not specified, any user may log in with the same user name.
-.Sh FILES
-.Bl -tag -width /etc/hosts.equiv -compact
-.It Pa /etc/hosts.equiv
-global trusted host-user pairs list
-.It Pa ~/.rhosts
-per-user trusted host-user pairs list
-.El
-.Sh EXAMPLES
-.Bl -ohang -compact
-.It Li somehost
-A common usage; users on
-.Ar somehost
-may log in to the local host as the same user name.
-.Pp
-.It Li somehost username
-The user
-.Ar username
-on
-.Ar somehost
-may log in to the local host.
-If specified in
-.Pa /etc/hosts.equiv ,
-the user may log in with only the same user name.
-.Pp
-.It Li +@anetgroup username
-The user
-.Ar username
-may log in to the local host from any machine listed in the netgroup
-.Ar anetgroup .
-.Pp
-.It +
-.It + +
-Two severe security hazards.
-In the first case, allows a user on any
-machine to log in to the local host as the same user name.
-In the second
-case, allows any user on any machine to log in to the local host (as any
-user, if in
-.Pa /etc/hosts.equiv ) .
-.El
-.Sh SEE ALSO
-.Xr rsh 1 ,
-.Xr rcmd 3 ,
-.Xr ruserok 3 ,
-.Xr netgroup 5
-.Sh HISTORY
-The
-.Nm .rhosts
-file format appeared in
-.Bx 4.2 .
-.Sh CAVEATS
-The user name checks provided by this mechanism are
-.Em not
-secure, as the remote user name is received by the server unchecked
-for validity.
-Therefore this mechanism should only be used
-in an environment where all hosts are completely trusted.
-.Pp
-A numeric host address instead of a host name can help security
-considerations somewhat; the address is then used directly by
-.Xr iruserok 3 .
-.Pp
-When a user name (or netgroup, or
-.Sq + )
-is specified in
-.Pa /etc/hosts.equiv ,
-that user (or group of users, or all users, respectively) may log in to
-the local host as
-.Em any local user .
-Usernames in
-.Pa /etc/hosts.equiv
-should therefore be used with extreme caution, or not at all.
-.Pp
-A
-.Pa .rhosts
-file must be owned by the user whose home directory it resides in, and
-must be writable only by that user.
-.Pp
-Logins as root only check root's
-.Pa .rhosts
-file; the
-.Pa /etc/hosts.equiv
-file is not checked for security.
-Access permitted through root's
-.Pa .rhosts
-file is typically only for
-.Xr rsh 1 .
-.Sh BUGS
-The
-.Xr ruserok 3
-implementation currently skips negative entries (preceded with a
-.Sq \&-
-sign) and does not treat them as
-.Dq short-circuit
-negative entries.
