yeah i did a search first, as always, and nothing came up, like my situation, thanks for the tips, ill check rhosts, but i doubt that is the issue here, any other ideas

It's hard to diagnose a problem when you don't give details. Are you getting an error, a connection refused, host unknown, or nothing at all?

sorry, here are the details

rlogin hostname
hostname.domain.com: Connection refused

This is what I get on one server
Why is this?
Telent lets me in fine

do you have this entry in your /etc/inetd.conf ?

# RLOGIND - rlogin daemon (BSD protocols)
login stream tcp6 nowait root /usr/sbin/in.rlogind in.rlogind

On the server i can rlogin into, I have this

login stream tcp6 nowait root /usr/sbin/in.rlogind in.rlogind

On the server I cannot I dont have this entry at all

login stream tcp6 nowait root /usr/sbin/in.rlogind in.rlogind
