CPU(1)                                                     CPU(1)

     NAME
          cpu - execute a remote command

     SYNOPSIS
          cpu [ -C alg ] [net!]host [ command [ arg... ] ]

     DESCRIPTION
          Cpu dials host (using network tcp if net is not given),
          exports the local namespace and executes the given command
          on that machine. The local namespace is visible to the com-
          mand in /n/client; local device files are bound into the
          remote device directory.  If command is not given, then
          /dis/sh is run.

          The -C option sets the algorithm to be used following
          authentication for digesting or encryption, to alg. See
          ssl(3) for the supported algorithms.  The default is none:
          ssl(3) is not used after authentication.

     BUGS
          Although the draw device files are visible to the remote
          command, the current implementation of Tk means that window-
          ing applications cannot receive events when run remotely.
          This will be fixed in a future release.
