Obviously ssh appears to be the preferred answer but if tcsh is available on the remote host, check for tcsh's REMOTEHOST environment variable. It should have exactly what you want. If it (tcsh) was built to support it ($version will have an "rh" in it), tcsh will attempt to set $REMOTEHOST to the name (or IP address) of the incoming machine according to getpeername() on the incoming socket connection. This of course won't do you much good if you are connecting via more than one hop, connecting through a firewall, want security, etc. HTH, Keith -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
