I have noticed that Xenix/286 has trouble receiving rlogin/rexec calls from a BSD client. Is this indicitive of all SYSV implementations of TCP/IP software. What I am trying to do is authorize PC Users on a network, and the way I am doing it is by making an rexec call (which uses the BSD 4.2 spec) to a Xenix 286 machine. If the rexec call succeeds, the authorization program lets them in. Can anyone give me help here? Is this doable with what I have? Are all SYSV TCP/IP alike? Any help would greatly be appreciated. +-----------------+---------------------------+-----------------------------+ | Bill Poitras | Polygen Corporation | {princeton mit-eddie | | (bill) | Waltham, MA USA | bu sunne}!polygen!bill | | | | bill@polygen.com | +-----------------+---------------------------+-----------------------------+
