NAME
.netrc - remote machine login/passwords
DESCRIPTION
The .netrc file in a user's home directory contains a list
of accounts on other machines. It is used by the ftp and
rdump commands to provide auto-login.
The format is a keyword followed by a value seperated by a
space, comma, tab or newline. Used keywords are: machine,
login, password. These are keywords not currenly used but
recognized: default, notify, write, yes, y, no, n, command,
force.
Since this file contains passwords to accounts on other
systems the programs that use this file will print an error
message and not use the information if it is readable by
group or other. This is to encourage the user to protect
this sensitive file.
