6.4.4.11 use rhosts

This global option specifies the name of a standard Unix user's .rhosts file that will allow foreign hosts to access shares without specifying a password. You can specify the location of such a file as follows:


[global]
	use rhosts = /home/dave/.rhosts

The default value for this option does not specify any .rhosts file. Like the hosts equiv option above, using such a file is a security risk. We highly recommend that you do use this option unless you are confident in the security of your network.
