Hi Raju,

Are you trying to do this as a regular user or root?
If you want to be able to rsh,rcp,etc. as root, you might
need to add the -h option for rshd (aka in.rshd) in your
/etc/inetd.conf.  Of course this is a possible security risk
so that's why it is disabled by default.  But if you really
want to then add it and restart inetd.  "killall -HUP inetd"

later,
Tuan
