Name : remctl
Product : Fedora 28
Version : 3.14
Release : 1.fc28
URL :

Summary : Client/server for Kerberos-authenticated command execution
Description :
remctl (the client) and remctld (the server) implement a client/server
protocol for running single commands on a remote host using Kerberos
v5 authentication and returning the output. They use a very simple
GSS-API-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
authorised user.
