Problems with rcp command
I have two servers A and B; A has redhat 5 and B has Suse10. Both of them has rhost file configuration. When i try to copy file from A to B that is OK but when try to copy from B to A i have an error: connection refused.
I installed rsh and rsh-server on server A and stop iptables service.
I need to use rcp only.
Please send me some help

Look in your /etc/services file to find out what port rsh uses then try telneting to that port. telnet <server-b> <rsh-port-number>

RE:
Thanks blackrageous, but in file /etc/services there is not any information for rsh neither rcp.
I try to configure xinetd service since that forks to rsh, rlogin, so it could be good for rcp.
