Hi I'm a student programmer at the Dept. of Mathematics and Computer Science, Odense University in Denmark.
I've installed Debian 1.2 on one of our PC's in the Unix network. This works great (not surprisingly). Now I've installed Debian 1.3.1 on another PC, and I can't get this new machine to accept root rsh requests from our primary server (running SunOS), or any other machine, for that matter. Both Debian machines have the same .rhosts file in the root homedir, but the 1.3.1 host gives permission denied replies. BTW: I'm not using shadow passwords on any of the systems. I'm lost, and if I don't solve the problem my system manager will not let me install Debian on new PCs in the department (Not Good!). ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Jeppe Buk, student of computer science Phone: +45 6557 2347 IMADA, Odense University Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Campusvej 55 WWW: http://www.imada.ou.dk/~buk/ DK-5230 Odense M, Denmark SMS (subject only): [EMAIL PROTECTED] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Software is like sex; it's better when it's free.
