Remote Login is the process of connecting to an internet host to use its native user interface. In simple words Remote Login means to access other computers on the network or on the other network by the use of telnet or rlogin command. To explain in simple terms let us assume that 'X' is preparing a presentation in the cluster lab for a Vo'ISE event to be held tomorrow. Unfortunately 'X' gets diagnosed with stomach ache and is not able to come to college the day before the event. But he has to finish the presentation at any cost for the event. WHAT does he do?
This is where remote login comes into picture. Remote login however, uses simple desktop sharing software to give us a "remote control" for accessing our computer and all of its software and hard drive files from any Internet connected device anywhere in the world. So now 'X' can access the computer in the cluster lab using the process of remote login. For remote login to work, both the host computer and all remote users have to download and install the same desktop sharing software. Thus remote login has proved to be a boon to access computers in other parts of the world.
