problem with RCP
hi everybody ,

i have a problem with rcp between too hosts :

when i do :
host 1(root) :# rcp file1 host2:/target2
or :
host2 (root):#rcp file2 host1:/target1

i have the following message : permission denied

I made the following changes, but the problem still persists :
I added the line : host1 root in the file /.rhosts of the host2 (and the same for host1)
the /etc/hosts contains the entry of the destination machine (in host1 & host2)
ps: the rsh works between the both hosts

have you any idea how to solve this issue ???

rcp

RCP(1)							    BSD General Commands Manual 						    RCP(1)

NAME

     rcp -- remote file copy

SYNOPSIS

     rcp [-46p] file1 file2
     rcp [-46pr] file ... directory

DESCRIPTION

     The rcp utility copies files between machines.  Each file or directory argument is either a remote file name of the form
     ``ruser@rhost:path'', or a local file name (containing no ':' characters, or a '/' before any ':'s).

     The following options are available:

     -4      Use IPv4 addresses only.

     -6      Use IPv6 addresses only.

     -p      Cause rcp to attempt to preserve (duplicate) in its copies the modification times and modes of the source files, ignoring the
	     umask(2).	By default, the mode and owner of file2 are preserved if it already existed; otherwise the mode of the source file modi-
	     fied by the umask(2) on the destination host is used.

     -r      If any of the source files are directories, rcp copies each subtree rooted at that name; in this case the destination must be a
	     directory.

     If path is not a full path name, it is interpreted relative to the login directory of the specified user ruser on rhost, or your current user
     name if no other remote user name is specified.  A path on a remote host may be quoted (using '', '"', or ''') so that the metacharacters
     are interpreted remotely.

     The rcp utility does not prompt for passwords; it performs remote execution via rsh(1), and requires the same authorization.

     The rcp utility handles third party copies, where neither source nor target files are on the current machine.

SEE ALSO

     cp(1), ftp(1), rlogin(1), rsh(1), hosts.equiv(5)

HISTORY

     The rcp command appeared in 4.2BSD.  The version of rcp described here has been reimplemented with Kerberos in 4.3BSD-Reno.

BUGS

     Does not detect all cases where the target of a copy might be a file in cases where only a directory should be legal.

     Is confused by any output generated by commands in a .login, .profile, or .cshrc file on the remote host.

     The destination user and hostname may have to be specified as ``rhost.ruser'' when the destination machine is running the 4.2BSD version of
     rcp.
