subsitution for rcmd

[anujaggarwal85]

hi everyone,

I m looking for a subsitution for rcmd(). i want make a client server application run on a standalone machine.
currently i am going with unix file sockets.

my doubts are:
1. is there only one stdin, stdout and strerr sockets for a linux machine or if we open different termnals then will those terminals have their own stdin, stdout, stderr soket descriptors

2. Is it possible for a program running in one terminal to copy the standard io descriptors of other terminal.

3.can a program runnin in one terminal send data to the stdin descriptor of other terminal


i tried doing it but the parent prints the data in its own terminal not in client terminal.
