I need to put something in /etc/hosts.equiv? Or do you mean /etc/hosts? I
can try modifying .equiv when I get home this eve but I didn't have root
access in the past when I used .rhosts files and I don't think the sys
admin happened to have the other computer in his .equiv file...
The entries do appear in /etc/hosts

Did this, in fact I see that rsh goes to rlogin when no command is given so
I uncommented that and, in desperation, the rexec service as well. And
restarted inetd.

This I did not check. What permissions do I need? I didn't see any
warnings or errors in the logs.
