/***
 * This is an example program demonstrating how to use the RCommandClient
 * class. This program connects to an rshell daemon and requests that the
 * given command be executed on the server.  It then reads input from stdin
 * (this will be line buffered on most systems, so don't expect character
 * at a time interactivity), passing it to the remote process and writes
 * the process stdout and stderr to local stdout.
 * <p>
 * On Unix systems you will not be able to use the rshell capability
 * unless the process runs as root since only root can bind port addresses
 * lower than 1024.
 * <p>
 * Example: java rshell myhost localusername remoteusername "ps -aux"
 * <p>
 * Usage: rshell <hostname> <localuser> <remoteuser> <command>
 * <p>
