SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag ... ] file ...  -lrmt -lsocket -lnsl [ library ... ]

       #include <librmt.h>

DESCRIPTION

       Functions  in this library provide an interface to a remote tape server
       program.

       This implementation takes care of RMT protocol VERSION 1

ENVIRONMENT

       RSH    If the RSH environment is present, the  remote  connection  will
              not be created via rcmd(3) but by calling the program pointed to
              by RSH.  Use e.g.  RSH=/usr/bin/ssh to  create  a  secure  shell
              connection.

       RMT    If  the  RMT environment is present, the remote tape server will
              not be the program /etc/rmt but the program pointed to  by  RMT.
              Note that the remote tape server program name will be ignored if
              you log in using an account that has been created with a  remote
              tape server program as login shell.
