.SH Name
MAKEHOSTS \- make symbolic links to hosts
.SH Syntax
.B /usr/hosts/MAKEHOSTS
.SH Description
The 
.PN MAKEHOSTS
command creates symbolic links to the
.PN rsh
command for each of the hosts as defined in the
.PN /etc/svc.conf
file.
If the
.PN /etc/svc.conf
file does not exist,
then the
.PN MAKEHOSTS
command creates the links for each of the hosts listed in the local
.PN /etc/hosts
file.
The resulting symbolic links populate the
.PN /usr/hosts
directory.
.PP
The symbolic links are a convenience that allows users
to type the name of a remote host on the network to log into that
host.
For example, the following command logs you into a remote host
called
.PN chicago :
.EX
# \f(CBchicago\f(CW
.EE
If you do not create the symbolic links,
you must use the
.PN rlogin
command to log into a remote host.
For example,
to log into a remote host named
.PN chicago ,
type:
.EX
# \f(CBrlogin chicago\f(CW
.EE
