Can I use RSH, or better still UUX, to create remote processes on other nodes connected to the Apollo ring? Thanx in advance. -- Rich

I assume you have Domain/IX installed. 'rsh' works fine if you have tcp/ip up and running, along with 'inetd' configured with the proper daemons. I am not sure how one would use 'uux' over the ring.

As John Hays stated, bsd4.2 rsh(1) can be used providing that tcp/ip has been correctly installed on all involved nodes. The current (bsd4.2 or sys5/Release 2) versions of uucico do not provide a protocol driver for anything other than serial lines. (uucico is the program which uux uses to do the transfer of files between machines, and to invoke the command via another program, uuxqt.) There is an excellent version of uucp (commonly called HoneyDanBer) which is included with sys5 Release 3 which has a very rich set of protocol drivers, but this is not in widespread distribution within the uucp user community. ...walt... -- Walt Weber PHONE: (617) 256-6600 x7004 Apollo Computer GENIE: W.WEBER Chelmsford, People's Republic of Massachusetts

Walt Weber, of the People's Republic of Massachusetts says: The current (bsd4.2 or sys5/Release 2) versions of uucico do not provide a protocol driver for anything other than serial lines. He probably meant to say: The (bsd4.2 or sys5/Release 2) versions of uucico that Apollo currently releases do not provide a protocol driver for anything other than serial lines. Here on this Apollo, for example, bsd4.3 uucp is current. --paul
