Question remsh working one way
host Solaris 5.9 E250 host-name: sunsrv1
remote Solaris 5.8 Netra 250 host_name: sspfs_svr
i am able to remsh (or rsh)from remote to host
like ;
Code:
$ remsh sunsrv1 uname -n
sunsrv1

but opposite way not possible;

Code:
# remsh sspfs_svr ls
sspfs_svr: Connection refused

OR

Code:
# rsh -l 

	
HTML Code:

	
username




 -n sspfs_svr ls
sspfs_svr: Connection refused

OR this way: direct from root itself

Code:
# rsh -l cpacaci sspfs_svr ls
sspfs_svr: Connection refused


I configured the following files ;

.rhosts
/etc/passwd (identical users; both in host and remote)
/etc/hosts

any advice ? Thanks Smilie

"Connection refused" means that inetd isn't listening for remsh. Check /etc/inetd.conf and make sure that the remsh/rsh line isn't hashed out (marked with a # at the start of the line). On Solaris 10, use inetadm to check the same thing (can't tell you exactly which options and such, though).

Question remsh
following problematic Netra 240 server cannot access remotely, even though ping telnet etc. is working. Here is the inetd.conf status;

Code:
# cat /etc/inetd.conf |grep rsh
 shell  stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/sbin/in.rshd       in.rshd
 shell  stream  tcp6    nowait  root    /usr/sbin/in.rshd       in.rshd
# uname -a
SunOS sspfs_svr 5.8 Generic_117000-01 sun4u sparc SUNW,Netra-240
#

seems to be working ? but still no remsh or rsh or rlogin possible what other reason can effect this situation ?
