Trying to connect to my new backup server running 5.4 using rsh fails.
It worked well on my old backup server running 4.7 P25.
inetd.conf has the /usr/libexec/rshd line un-commented.
hosts.allow permits the remote host to connect to rshd.
The rsh file in /etc/pam.d has been patched by hand and looks good.
The message I am getting after some timeout period is:
server.host.name: Connection refused
It appears that inetd, which is running by the way, is not starting
rshd.
Can anyone give me a pointer or two to get this thing working?

Unfortunately, I don't know the solution for your problem, but I'm
really intersted what's the point in using rshd? SSH is more common and
it is secure. Security is not necessary in a trusted subnet, but sshd
would suffice your needs. And FreeBSD is shipped with a working sshd
configurations, what You have to do is only enabling it in rc.conf.
