Problems using rsh

Hi,

I have a server which I've configured to allow an rsh trust from a csm server. However, of the 3 vlans on the target server, I can only rsh to one of them without being prompted for the password.

On lpar1
$ ifconfig -a
en2: flags=1e080863,480<UP,BROADCAST,NOTRAILERS,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST,GROUPRT,64BIT,CHECKSUM_OFFLOAD( ACTIVE),CHAIN>
inet 10.162.73.138 netmask 0xffffff80 broadcast 10.162.73.255
tcp_sendspace 262144 tcp_recvspace 262144 rfc1323 1
en3: flags=5e080863,c0<UP,BROADCAST,NOTRAILERS,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST,GROUPRT,64BIT,CHECKSUM_OFFLOAD(A CTIVE),PSEG,LARGESEND,CHAIN>
inet 10.162.70.71 netmask 0xffffffc0 broadcast 10.162.70.127
en5: flags=1e080863,80<UP,BROADCAST,NOTRAILERS,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST,GROUPRT,64BIT,CHECKSUM_OFFLOAD(A CTIVE),CHAIN>
inet 10.162.73.11 netmask 0xffffff80 broadcast 10.162.73.127
tcp_sendspace 262144 tcp_recvspace 262144 rfc1323 1

On csm server
csms01:/ $ rsh 10.162.70.71
root's Password:

csms01:/ $ rsh 10.162.73.11
root's Password:

csms01:/ $ rsh 10.162.73.138
Last login: Wed Mar 19 12:51:07 GMT 2008 on /dev/pts/0 from csms01-tsm
root@lpar1:/ $

Can anyone suggest why this only works to 1 of the vlans? I have several other servers with a similar ip configuration and I can rsh too all the vlans without any problems.

Thanks

Gareth

RSH(1)							      General Commands Manual							    RSH(1)

NAME
rsh - remote shell SYNOPSIS
rsh [-n] [-l username] host [command] host [-n] [-l username] [command] DESCRIPTION
Rsh connects to the specified host, and executes the specified command. Rsh copies its standard input to the remote command, the standard output of the remote command to its standard output, and the standard error of the remote command to its standard error. Interrupt, quit and terminate signals are propagated to the remote command; rsh normally terminates when the remote command does. The remote username used is the same as your local username, unless you specify a different remote name with the -l option. This remote name must be equivalent (in the sense of rlogin(1)) to the originating account; no provision is made for specifying a password with a com- mand. If you omit command, then instead of executing a single command, you will be logged in on the remote host using rlogin(1). Shell metacharacters which are not quoted are interpreted on local machine, while quoted metacharacters are interpreted on the remote machine. Thus the command rsh otherhost cat remotefile >> localfile appends the remote file remotefile to the localfile localfile, while rsh otherhost cat remotefile ">>" otherremotefile appends remotefile to otherremotefile. OPTIONS
-l username Specify the remote user name. -n Connect standard input of the remote command to /dev/null. Do this if rsh should not inadvertently read from standard input. SEE ALSO
rcp(1), rlogin(1), rhosts(5). BUGS
You cannot run an interactive command (like rogue(6) or vi(1)); use rlogin(1). 4.2 Berkeley Distribution April 29, 1985 RSH(1)
