I found by myself. To configure the rsh server machine to accept rsh from the root user of a client machine you need to edit 3 files. Say the rsh client machine is called client.company, for each file, add a line:
- /etc/hosts.equiv: client.company - /root/.rhosts: client.company Also, it´s good to "chmod 600 /root/.rhosts". - /etc/securetty: rsh That´s all. bnegrao ----- Original Message ----- From: "Bruno Negrão" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "redhat general" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, September 26, 2003 4:49 PM Subject: howto configure rshd? > Hi all, > > How to configure rshd?
