Question rcp from Linux to Win2k server

I am trying to simply send a file via "rcp" from a Redhat 8 server to an Windows 2000 server. I keep getting a "connection refused" message. I do NOT have an ".rhosts" file in the users home directory. Do I need one? What do I need to set up in order to send via "rcp" on the source and target machines?

Thanks in advance,

Mark Crouch

Windows doesn't run an rcp daemon by default. I'm not sure if they even provide a binary with the OS. If not you would need to find one and download it. scp is the recommended alternative to rcp however -- look for that instead.
