rlogin for windows

Hello Experts,

I am developing an Windows application from which I will be monitoring the health of the remote server.
Usually ,we connect to the server from our unix workstation using the rlogin command.From windows I need to connect to the server.So,I need an rlogin application on Windows so that I can connect to it to monitor the server.Here I cannot use telnet application bcos there is no telnet server running on the server side.So,I need to develop my own rlogin application to connect to the telnet server.

Is there any links where I can find the rlogin source code like telnet which is available on the internet?

Please post the same at the earliest...I am using Visual Studio 2005

A prompt response is highly appreciated.

Some Windows flavours (2k and server versions) already come with a telnet server service, all you need to do is enabling it. If that does not apply, you need to install one. MS itself offers a telnet service for free that comes with the "Services for UNIX" package available from http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=896C9688-601B-44F1-81A4-02878FF11778&displaylang=en ("Download details: Windows Services for UNIX Version 3.5").

Where Can I get the free source code for rlogin in VC++ so that I can make changes in the code as per my requirement..

Thanks in Advance...

jkr

You'll find the code at http://www.gnu.org/software/inetutils/inetutils.html

Yet there is no need to change any code, all you need is the server part on Windows.

hello jkr,

I tried to build the above source code but I dont have few header files and code for them..

jkr

On Windows?

tatikor_143

ASKER

yes

jkr

As I wrote - there is no use in doing that. You need a server service on windows, not the client. See the above links.

I wish I could, but there is no too much source code out there, it was sheer luck to find that on. Even Sourceforge has nothing: http://sourceforge.net/search/?type_of_search=soft&words=rlogin
