Hello Netters Can any knowledgeble soul tell me why does rlogin from DEC Ultrix 4.0 to Sun OS 4.1 ( sun4 architecture ) does not work? Earlier version Ultrix 3.1 or 3.2 this was working. Gopal Sridhara srid@uswest.com PS : This was noticed on dec station 3100 ( RISC). The problem I am facing is typical to Sun 4 SunOS 4.1. Other combination works fine. Gopal K.

I don't know, why rlogin/rsh doesn't work, but here is a Workaround for csh, that works for me. Just put the command into the background, and get it to foreground. rsh machine & fg %rsh Limitations: The fg command will only work, if no other rsh is active in the jobs list. May be, someone knows, why this works and will find the bug. Thinking about the difference to a simple rsh-command, it must be a signal-handling or filedescriptor (select ?) problem.

Wow, that is so WEIRD! I tried: rlogin sun & [2] 4358 [2] + Stopped (tty output) rlogin sun fg and it works!
