NAME
       Net::SSH::Perl::Auth::Rhosts - Perform Rhosts authentication

SYNOPSIS
           use Net::SSH::Perl::Auth;
           my $auth = Net::SSH::Perl::Auth->new('Rhosts', $ssh);
           print "Valid auth" if $auth->authenticate;

DESCRIPTION
       Net::SSH::Perl::Auth::Rhosts performs Rhosts authentication with a remote sshd server.
       When you create a new Rhosts auth object, you give it an $ssh object, which should contain
       an open connection to an ssh daemon, as well as any data that the authentication module
       needs to proceed. In this case, the $ssh object must contain the name of the user trying
       to open the connection.

       Rhosts authentication is fairly simple from a protocol point of view. However, note that
       the sshd server will require your client to be running on a privileged port (below 1024);
       this will, in turn, likely require your client to be running as root. If your client is
       not running on a privileged port, the Rhosts authentication request will be denied.

       If you're running as root, Net::SSH::Perl should automatically detect that and try to
       start up on a privileged port. If for some reason that isn't happening, take a look at the
       Net::SSH::Perl docs.

       With that aside, to use Rhosts authentication the client sends a request to the server to
       authenticate it, including the name of the user trying to authenticate. The server uses
       its shosts.equiv, hosts.equiv, etc. files to determine whether the user/host should be
       allowed access.
