Hi,

What have you tried, what version of solaris. Check to see if "rcp" is installed - it should be. You can check as follows;

Code:
-bash-3.2$ which rcp
/usr/bin/rcp
-bash-3.2$

  • It is much more common to use scp nowadays.
  • Are the required services installed.
  • Are the appropriate ports open

Regards

If your goal is to use the rcp or scp on the Solaris system, and copy files to or from other systems, then there is nothing to set up. Only the network connection must work (test with ping).
If in addition you want to use the rcp or scp on other systems, and copy files to or from your Solaris system, then the respective services must be enabled on the Solaris system.

Hi,

There is no need to "setup" rcp, you can use various authorization regimes but that is a whole other subject.
