.authrc - runcom file

The .autrc file contains login and initialization information used for auto login. It generally resides in the user’s config directory, but a location outside of the config directory can be set.

• ALIAS
  Alias of a service, or remote host

• SERVICE
  Identify a service or remote host name. The auto login process searches the .authrc file for a SERVICE token that matches the service or remote machine specified on the command line argument. Once a match is made, the subsequent .authrc tokens are processed, stopping when the end of line is reached

• USERNAME
  Identify a user of the service, or on the remote machine.

• PASSWORD
  Supply a password. If this token is present, the auto-login process will supply the specified string if the service or remote server requires a password as part of the login process.

• COMMAND
  Command to execute on remote server.

Example
