Today I played with sound :-), and here's what happens.
Having made a suitable *.snd file that says, "Hi, there"
I put this as the last line of my .login:
sndplay /Users/anderson/etc/hi_there.snd
This works exactly as you would expect from the NeXT, to
general mirth of visitors in the office.
If I rlogin from somewhere else, the (I guess restricted)
shell produces a diagnostic when it gets to that line:
sndplay: can't play soundfile: /Users/anderson/etc/hi_there.snd
So, I would say the system knows something one could use to
test and not make the call under the rlogin case. He or she
who knows, please do tell.
