We are running 4.2BSD on a couple of 780s. Rsh and rcp work just fine when invoked as any user other than root. Rsh, for example, when invoked by root, will just sit doing nothing, until a CNTL-D or interrupt. If invoked as: rsh host ls >/tmp/lsout </dev/null it will not hang, but it won't put anything into /tmp/lsout . I can rsh to an Ultrix system successfully, but not from the Ultrix system to the 4.2 system. I know that other 4.2 systems behave properly. Has anyone else had this problem? Can anyone suggest a fix, or where to look for more information? Thanks. -- David Trueman Microtel Pacific Research {ihnp4!alberta sun utcsri}!ubc-vision!mprvaxa!trueman
