Does in.tccd source .profile on a remote system?
The information in this article is not applicable to Win32 systems.
Question
It doesn't look like
in.tccd
sources the
.profile
of the
tccd
user.
Is this the case?
Answer
Yes.
Since
in.tccd
is not the child of a login shell, environment variables set in a
.profile
or
.login
file are not passed to
in.tccd.
You can invoke
in.tccd
from within a shell script wrapper if you need this kind of processing.
However, if you invoke
in.tccd
from a wrapper, you must ensure that nothing in the shell script
touches the standard input.
This is because
inetd
passes the client connection to
in.tccd
on the standard input.
