Looking for an SSH Component?

For SSH support, see PowerTCP SSH and SFTP for .NET >

Use the Rlogin .NET component to easily login to a remote host using rlogin. Features include:

Stream interface enables advanced read/write capabilities such as reading to a delimiter.
Trace event exposes the TCP communication.
Specify the display characters, display pixels, and terminal type speed.
Use synchronously or asynchronously.
Extensive documentation includes Rlogin quick starts.
Installation includes Rlogin sample.
Integrates with all versions of Visual Studio and supports C#, VB.NET, ASP.NET, Delphi 8, C# Builder, and other .NET compliant development environments.

Interface

Public Constructors
Rlogin.	Initialize a new instance of the Rlogin class.
Public Properties
AutoReceive	Gets or sets a value which determines if data is automatically receved.

Available	Gets the amount of data that has been received from the network and is available to be read.
Charset	Gets and sets the character set used for string/byte array conversions.
Connected	Gets the connected state of the connection.
DisplayCharacters	Gets or sets character display information.
DisplayPixels	Gets or sets pixel display information.
DoEvents	Gets or sets a value that controls the processing of events during blocking method calls.
Editor	In Visual Studio.NET, displays an interactive form to use to test real time protocol operations.
KeepAlive	Gets or sets the value of the socket's KeepAlive option.
LocalEndPoint	Returns the local address the socket is bound to.
NoDelay	Gets and sets a value the disables the use of Nagle's algorithm so that data is sent immediately.
OutOfBandInline	Gets or sets a value that indicates whether out-of-band (urgent) data is read as normal in-line data.
Proxy	Returns the Proxy instance that controls proxy server use.
ReceiveBufferSize	Gets and sets the size of the system receive buffer.
ReceiveTimeout	Gets and sets the number of milliseconds that a Rlogin.Receive method will block before throwing a SocketException.
RemoteEndPoint	Returns the remote address/port the socket is connected to.
ReuseAddress	Gets or sets a value that typically allows any local port to be specified, even if it is already in use.
SendBufferSize	Gets and sets the size of the system send buffer.
SendTimeout	Gets and sets the number of milliseconds that a Rlogin.Send method will block before throwing a SocketException.
Socket	Returns a reference to the System.Net.Sockets.Socket instance being used.
Stream	Returns a SegmentedStream that can be used for advanced streaming operations on the socket.
Tag	Gets or sets an object reference that can be used to associate this instance with any other. Gets or sets an object reference that can be used to associate this instance with any other.
TerminalTypeSpeed	Gets or sets terminal type and speed.
Public Methods
BeginLogin	Connect to a server asynchronously, specifying the local interface and a range of local ports to use. The Rlogin.EndConnect event is raised when completed.
BeginReceive	Receive data into your buffer asynchronously specifying a buffer, offset, size and SocketFlags value. The Rlogin.EndReceive event is raised when completed.
BeginSend	Send data from your buffer asynchronously, specifying a buffer, offset, size and SocketFlags value. The Rlogin.EndSend event is raised when completed.
Close	Close the connection.
Login	Connect to a host, specifying the local interface and a range of local ports to use.
Receive	Receive data from the host, specifying a buffer, offset, size and SocketFlags value.
Send	Send data to the server, specifying a buffer, offset, size and SocketFlags value.
WaitFor	Reads data from the stream until the specified string is found.
Public Events
ConnectedChanged	Raised when the value of the Object.Connected property changes.
EndLogin	Raised when the Rlogin.BeginLogin request completes.
EndReceive	Raised when the Rlogin.BeginReceive request completes.
EndSend	Raised when the Rlogin.BeginSend request completes.
RawTrace	Raised when data has been sent/received.
Trace	Raised when data has been sent/received.

Code Example

How easy is the Rlogin component to use? Check out the following example below which demonstrates Rlogin functionality.

' Login
Rlogin1.Login("myserver", "myname")


' wait for the command prompt, be sure to set ReceiveTimeout to nonzero number
Rlogin1.ReceiveTimeout = 5000
Dim s As String = Rlogin1.WaitFor("~>")
Debug.WriteLine(s)


' Send PWD command
Rlogin1.Send("pwd" + vbCrLf)

' Receive the response
Dim Seg As Segment = Rlogin1.Receive()
Debug.WriteLine("Current dir: " + Seg.ToString())

 ' Close the connection
Rlogin1.Close()
