Sorry guys - I was given mis-information by our Unix team. Turns out we need to remote shell from Unix to NT (not rexec as I was told before). I've installed the rshsvr.exe service from the NT resource kit onto my PC using the service install wizard (also in the resource kit). Is this right? I can't actually find any set-up instructions for this rshsvr utility. All I can really find that looks any use is Microsoft knowledge base article Q158320 which makes reference to .Rhosts and Hosts.equiv files. However, I just cannot get a handle on what's going on. Any ideas where to proceed from here and have I done it right so far?

Thanks for your help! There's a virtual beer in it for guy who sorts it.

Never mind a virtual beer, it's a virtual slap you need

Half the time Unix admins don't know what day it is, well the one's here don't.

Simon,

Have a read through this http://www.samag.com/documents/s=120...705d/9705d.htm

It's got some examples of the rhosts file.

Stefan

 

Does that mean you don't know what to do?

 

That looks great. Ta.

 

Ozzy,

R U sure your not confusing the Unix SA's with the NT Admins ?

 

Simon,

Couldn't possible comment

Michael,

Probably. I've got to do NT, Novell and Unix here so I don't know what day, month or year it is
