[comp.unix.aix] rdist between AIX370 v1.2 and RT AIX 2.2.1

hugo@spica.ucsc.edu (Hugo Calendar) (08/31/90)

I'm trying to get rdist to work between AIX v1.2 running on
and IBM370, and an IBM RT running AIX 2.2.1.  When I do rdist
from the 370 to the RT, I get a message as follows:

	rdist: connection failed: version numbers don't match

However, rdist works between the 370 and an RS6000 running AIX 3.1
and two IBM RTs running AOS.  Therefore I assume the proble is
with the rdist running on the RT with AIX 2.2.1.

Has anybody had this problem before, and what did they do to fix
it?  I tried compiling the BSD rdist from uunet, but the compiler
gagged on it.  Any help fixing this is appreciated.

Thanks,
-Hugo
