Hi all,
I am trying to set up on a Fedora Core 3 pc the rsh server... and
failing for the moment.
I have the following message in /var/messages :
Apr 20 14:21:26 asma001 pam_rhosts_auth[8950]: denied to
vincent at 10.159.227.24 as varnoux: access not allowed
Apr 20 14:21:26 asma001 in.rshd[8950]: rsh denied to
vincent at 10.159.227.24 as varnoux: Permission denied.

What I don't understand is that I changed all authorization files I
found involved in rsh permissions. This system is on an intranet, so I
can desactivate any security I want, but rsh server MUST work.
I changed:
[root at asma001 varnoux]# cat /etc/hosts.allow
#
# hosts.allow   This file describes the names of the hosts which are
#               allowed to use the local INET services, as decided
#               by the '/usr/sbin/tcpd' server.
#
in.rshd:ALL
[root at asma001 varnoux]#  cat /etc/hosts.deny
#
# hosts.deny    This file describes the names of the hosts which are
#               *not* allowed to use the local INET services, as decided
#               by the '/usr/sbin/tcpd' server.
#
# The portmap line is redundant, but it is left to remind you that
# the new secure portmap uses hosts.deny and hosts.allow.  In particular
# you should know that NFS uses portmap!

[root at asma001 varnoux]# cat /etc/hosts.equiv
+
[root at asma001 varnoux]# cat .rhosts
+ +


And it is still not working. Anyone has another idea ?

Vincent
