protocol for running single commands on a remote host using Kerberos v5 authentication and returning the output. They use a very simple GSSAPI-authenticated network protocol, combined with server-side ACL support and a server configuration file that maps remctl commands to programs that should be run when that command is called by an authorized user. remctld is very similar to a CGI server that uses a different network protocol than HTTP and always does strong authentication before executing the desired command.
