[comp.sys.apollo] rcp between apollo/s9.7 host and unix host

tan@m10.uucp (Tan Bronson) (02/20/91)

    A friend of mine has an Apollo 4xxx running sr9.7 and we're having problems
getting incoming rcp's to work. We can rcp to a unix host from the apollo,
but we can't seem to get the apollo to accept incoming rcp's. I've changed
the /bsd*/etc/hosts.equiv, but this does not seem to help!
    My friend is in SanDiego (and he's got the manuals), and I'm on the east
cooast, so I can't RTFM. My friend tried to RTFM, but got so confused that
he gave up. My friend's apollo is embedded as part of a product he purchased
and the vendor is stuck.
    Could some kind sole please point us to a section of the manual, that
we should RTFM?
    Should a 'rcpserver' be running ?
    I've heard mention of a BSD vs SYSV TCP/IP, which should we be using?
    Is the s9.7 version of NFS usable with 386/ix 2.2 ?


    Please reply directly to me, I don't read this group very often and when
I have read is all about more modern versions of Apollo Os. Thanks in advance!
