I'm trying to get rsh set between two machines (local is Solaris 9,
remote is RHEL4). I've done it before (I
have a "cookbook") but I'm missing something. Please help. I'm aware of
the security issues involved using "r" commands.
What I've done on remote machine:
- in .rhosts I put FQ machine name and user name.
- added "+ FQ machine name user" in /etc/hosts.equiv
- in /etc/xinetd.d/rsh and rexec changed to "disable = no"
- added rsh to /etc/securetty
- restarted xinetd
- no error messages in/etc/log/messages when restarting xinetd.
What I've done on local machine:
- added remote FQ machine name and same user name to .rhosts
On local machine the command "rsh machinename w" results in "permission
denied"
On remote machine command "rsh localhost w" results in "permission denied.
TIA.
Tom
