By default, you can't rsh to root@linuxbox. It's most secure. But you can enable this (you should use ssh instead of rsh): Firt, you must be able to rsh with standard user Second, for the root case, the explanation is in /etc/pam.d/rsh: #%PAM-1.0 # For root login to succeed here with pam_securetty, "rsh" must be # listed in /etc/securetty.
