NAME
       rex - remote execution protocol

PROTOCOL
       /usr/include/rpcsvc/rex.x

DESCRIPTION
       This server will execute commands remotely.  The working directory
       and environment of the command can be specified, and the standard
       input and output of the command can be arbitrarily redirected.  An
       option is provided for interactive I/O for programs that expect to be
       running on terminals.  Note: this service is only provided with the
       TCP transport.

       Programs that use this protocol must be loaded using the flag -l
       rpcsvc.

PROGRAMMING
