not to sure if this is acceptable but you can try editing '/etc/pam.d/rsh' and comment out some lines there. I have two machines rsh'ing with not password prompts (but their permissions are set i.e. root can do root tasks, non-root can't) and I have the following /etc/pam.d/rsh entries:
auth required /lib/security/pam_securetty.so auth required /lib/security/pam_env.so account required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth session required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth in /etc/securetty, I added 'rsh'. Of course, I assume that you have the right '/etc/hosts' entries or you have your DNS setup propely (if you have one). cheers, lh --- Werner Puschitz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > On Thu, 4 Jul 2002, Info - Demerson wrote: > > > Hullo All, > > > > I was wondering if there is a way to enable remote > shell from other machines > > specifying a user... > > > > Like this... > > > > > > > rsh <SERVER> -l <USER> <COMMAND> > > > > I know that I've to edit a .rhosts file in the > <HOME> of the <USER>, like > > this > > > > .rhosts - permissions -> 400 > > > > <host> > > > > there is some way to allow ANY user to do rsh with > that user? > > No, but you could use /etc/hosts.equiv. > > WP > > > > > > _______________________________________________ > Redhat-list mailing list > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
