It should be noted that "deprecated" means ''heavily'' deprecated, in this instance - the r?? services are not running by default on any modern FreeBSD machine and it is HIGHLY recommended that you not enable or attempt to use them. | It should be noted that "deprecated" means ''heavily'' deprecated, in this instance - the r?? services are not running by default on any modern FreeBSD machine and it is HIGHLY recommended that you not enable or attempt to use them. | ||

The Mediawiki system (the 'software' that runs this site) capitalises all articles. Please note that commands on most UNIX and Unix-like systems are entered in lower case. As an example the article documenting the Ln command would be issued from the command line as 'ln'.
remote shell, one of the many r* services that allowed remote actions across different unix computers. Like it's other r-services siblings (rlogin, etc) it was unencrypted and is now deprecated for remote access tools that offer better security, like ssh, scp, etc.
It should be noted that "deprecated" means heavily deprecated, in this instance - the r?? services are not running by default on any modern FreeBSD machine and it is HIGHLY recommended that you not enable or attempt to use them.
