Dear forum,

First off, I'm using Solaris 5.6 UNIX. I'm trying to write a script which will connect to remote computers on a network (by specific IP's from a hosts file) and will run a separate script which is installed in each of the remote computers. My problem is that to run the script in the remote computers I need to log in as su (super user), which requires a password. I was advised to use the rsh command, but I am constantly prompted to input a password. Even after creating a .rhost and hosts.equiv in the home and bin dir.

I'm not a very proficient UNIX user. Only basic commands and what I've read. Is there any thing I've missed that I can do to avoid the password prompt?

Thanks for the help...
