Dear all - I am a little embarrassed but I cannot seem to figure it out. I would like to issue a rsh command over my local net from laptop to server.
The command is this: rsh server cat .rhosts On 'server' I have: /etc/hosts.allow: ALL: LOCAL /etc/hosts.deny: ALL: PARANOID ~/.rhosts: 192.168.1.118 erik (ip for 'laptop' and username the same on 'server' and 'laptop') The output for the command is always (after about 10 sec): server.avondel.nl: Connection refused I have looked at the hosts_access manpage but did not find my mistake. Also, I am not sure if I need to restart a daemon after changing any of the hosts files. Any suggestions much appreciated! NB running Potato on both systems. -- Erik van der Meulen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
