telnetrc(4) Kernel Interfaces Manual telnetrc(4) NAME telnetrc, .telnetrc - Specifies setup commands for a telnet session SYNOPSIS $HOME/.telnetrc DESCRIPTION The .telnetrc file contains the setup information for a telnet session. It is a hidden file in your home directory and must be readable by the user logging in. The file can consist of multiple entries for each remote host to which a user can connect. A remote host entry consists of multiple lines. The first line is the name of a remote host. The subsequent lines must begin with blank spaces, and contain telnet subcommands. These subcom- mands are processed as though they were typed in manually. Lines begin- ning with a number sign (#) are comment lines. See telnet(1) for a complete list of telnet subcommands. To specify subcommands that apply to all systems, create an entry, us- ing the word "DEFAULT" as the system name, and specify the telnet sub- commands in the subsequent lines. EXAMPLES The following shows a sample .telnetrc file: # Beginning of telnetrc file # Default subcommands that apply to all systems DEFAULT environ undefine USER # First system entry system1 set echo toggle crlf # Second system entry system2 set echo mode line toggle crlf FILES User-customized telnet startup values.
