Ah yes, I should have known it, I already have 14 server ports open :-) But it didn't work until I also enabled rlogind. It doesn't say that it needs rlogind, and if I hadn't looked with a packet sniffer I would have never known. The manpage doesn't say that rshd needs to be started from inetd either. That's rather poor documentation. Perhaps I should file a PR.

Can't start rshd
Hi! I'm having problems starting rshd. I tried it on two different computers (yes, I know about the security risks, but the port is firewalled off). I can't use alternatives because some software I'm using depends on it. The error is: It terminates with status 1 and sets errno to 38 (ENOTSOCK) = Socket operation on non-socket. It fails on the following function call: getpeername(0, (struct sockaddr *)from, fromlen) I'm no expert, but it looks like this can't work. Is this a bug, or is my installation faulty? BTW, I'm starting rshd with no arguments.
