Hello again,
I didn't get any response to this from a few days ago. I was able to get
rshd to run successfully on several other systems. There are two
differences between those other systems and the one described below:
1) I was able to get rshd to accept connections on Win2K machines, but not
WinXP. In both cases inetd started without any problems.
2) The name of the machine that I couldn't get to work has a dash ('-') in
its name.
I am not aware of any other differences. If anybody has a suggestion, I
would be greatly appreciative.
-Andy

Subject: RSH/RSHD Configuration Problem
Hi,
I'm trying to configure rshd to start up the nodes in a distributed
simulation system using Cygwin running on a bunch of Win2K and WinXP
machines. As a first step, I tried rsh'ing to the localhost, which works
okay. When I use the local machine name instead, rsh claims that it
couldn't look up the address for the client. I was wondering if anybody out
there has seen this problem before and if you have any insight on fixing it.
Here's a run log and the relevent lines from the hosts.allow, hosts.equiv
and my .rhosts files:
Harold.Andrews@DFCS-C77YQ01 /etc
$ rsh localhost ls

Harold.Andrews@DFCS-C77YQ01 /etc
$ rsh dfcs-c77yq01 ls
dfcs-c77yq01: Couldn't look up address for your host
(dfcs-c77yq01.usafa.af.mil)
Harold.Andrews@DFCS-C77YQ01 /etc
$ cat hosts.allow
ALL : localhost
ALL : dfcs-c77yq01
Harold.Andrews@DFCS-C77YQ01 /etc
$ cat hosts.equiv
localhost
dfcs-c77yq01
Harold.Andrews@DFCS-C77YQ01 /etc
$ cat ~/.rhosts
localhost harold.andrews
dfcs-c77yq01 harold.andrews
Any insight is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
