Remote SCSI transport server program (daemon)

The rscsi command is a remote generic SCSI transport server program. rscsi is a program that is run locally on the machine with SCSI devices, it is used by remote programs like cdrecord1, cdda2wav1, readcd1, and sformat1 that like to access SCSI devices through an interprocess communication connection via libscg. rscsi is normally started up with an rexec3 or rcmd3 call but it may also be connected via an internal pipe to an ssh1 session that was set up by the remote user.

The rscsi command must be installed setuid root for full functionality. For this reason it is provided as a separate package to cdrtools.
