Hi, I'm trying to rdist some files from a FreeBSD 4.9 machine to a new 5.2.1 p9 server. On the 5.2.1 server I enabled rsh, added the 4.9 server to root's .rhosts file, and kept getting a login denied message. I added the following to the /etc/pam.d/rsh file on the 5.2.1 box:
auth required pam_nologin.so no_warn account required pam_unix.so I can now rsh from the 4.9 box to the 5.2.1 box, but rdist shows the following: #rdist updating host wfv1 rdist: connection failed: version numbers don't match rdist: got unexpected input:rdist: rrdist: drdist: irdist: srdist: trdist: :rdist: rdist: Crdist: ordist: mrdist: mrdist: ardist: nrdist: drdist: rdist: nrdist: ordist: trdist: rdist: frdist: ordist: urdist: nrdist: drdist: .rdist: updating host wfv1 rdist: connection failed: version numbers don't match rdist: got unexpected input:rdist: rrdist: drdist: irdist: srdist: trdist: :rdist: rdist: Crdist: ordist: mrdist: mrdist: ardist: nrdist: drdist: rdist: nrdist: ordist: trdist: rdist: frdist: ordist: urdist: nrdist: drdist: .rdist: updating host wfv1 rdist: connection failed: version numbers don't match rdist: got unexpected input:rdist: rrdist: drdist: irdist: srdist: trdist: :rdist: rdist: Crdist: ordist: mrdist: mrdist: ardist: nrdist: drdist: rdist: nrdist: ordist: trdist: rdist: frdist: ordist: urdist: nrdist: drdist: .rdist: Running rdist -D shows: updating host wfv1 port = 514, luser = root, ruser = root buf = rdist -Server local user = root remote user = root Remote command = 'rdist -Server' I am root, therefore direct rcmd rdist: connection failed: version numbers don't match rdist: got unexpected input:rdist: rrdist: drdist: irdist: srdist: trdist: :rdist: rdist: Crdist: ordist: mrdist: mrdist: ardist: nrdist: drdist: rdist: nrdist: ordist: trdist: rdist: frdist: ordist: urdist: nrdist: drdist: .rdist: closeconn() doarrow(0x805b690, wfv1, 0x805b650) makeconn(wfv1) I've spent all morning looking at this and have run out of ideas. As part of the same rdist file, i'm update 3 other 4.10 server and they work fine. Does anyone have any sugestions? Yes, I know rdist is a little out of date, i've got a bunch of legacy stuff and scripts to convert before I can migrate off of rdist.
