I compared the remote machine referred to below that won't accept an rsh
command with a machine that will. /etc/xinetd.d was missing files
originally on the remote machine and I copied /etc/xinetd.d/rsh from the
working machine to the non-working machine. Also missing was
/usr/sbin/in.rshd which i also copied over. I should have included this
info in my original post.
I have another freshly installed RHEL4 machine (called tom) where I choose
to install "everything" (the problem machine in question did not have
"everything"
installed but a subset). Using my "cookbook" I was able to get rsh working
in 5 minutes! I'm now thinking that install somehow left out something but
i have no idea what. Any ideas out there?
Thanks.
Tom
