NAME

       rxtelnet — start a telnet and forward X-connections.

SYNOPSIS

       rxtelnet   [-l   username]  [-k]  [-t  telnet_args]  [-x  xterm_args]  [-K  kx_args]  [-w  term_emulator]
                [-b telnet_program] [-n] [-v] host [port]

DESCRIPTION

       The rxtelnet program starts an xterm window with a telnet to host host.  From this window you  will  also
       be  able  to run X clients that will be able to connect securely to your X server. If port is given, that
       port will be used instead of the default.

       If setting up the X forwarding failes, rxtelnet will still telnet in to the remote host,  but  without  X
       forwarding.

       The supported options are:

       -l      Log in on the remote host as user username.

       -k      Disables keep-alives.

       -t      Send telnet_args as arguments to telnet.

       -x      Send xterm_args as arguments to xterm.

       -X      Send kx_args as arguments to kx.

       -w      Use term_emulator instead of xterm.

       -b      Use telnet_program instead of telnet.

       -n      Do not start any terminal emulator.

       -v      Be verbose.

EXAMPLE

       To login from host foo (where your display is) to host bar, you might do the following.

       1.   On foo: rxtelnet bar

       2.   You will get a new window with a telnet to bar.  In this window you will be able to start X clients.
