hi...
i've got an "access denied" issue with rsh on one of my boxes (and before we start, no "use ssh" comments.. rsh is what i'm dealing with for now!!)
i've got a few boxes in my network, and i can successfully rsh into them with no issue. however, on one box, i can't access it using rsh, and i'm running out of things to try... kind of curious.
i can login using rlogin.
i've modifed the /etc/pam.d/rsh,rlogin files, along with the /etc/securetty file. i've also changed the /etc/xinetd.d/(rsh,rlogin)files. as far as i can tell, nothing else has been changed...
the curious thing. as far as i can tell... the files on the system that doesn't work, are the same as the files on the systems that are allowing rsh to occur...
the err i'm getting in the /var/log/secure is: Jun 23 22:16:09 lserver5 userhelper[2186]: pam_timestamp(system-config-services:session): updated timestamp file `/var/run/sudo/root/unknown' Jun 23 22:16:09 lserver5 userhelper[2189]: running '/usr/sbin/system-config-services' with root privileges on behalf of 'root' Jun 23 22:16:28 lserver5 xinetd[2227]: START: shell pid=2239 from=192.168.1.45 Jun 23 22:16:28 lserver5 rshd[2239]: pam_rhosts_auth(rsh:auth): denied to root@192.168.1.45 as test1: access not allowed Jun 23 22:16:28 lserver5 rshd[2239]: pam_unix(rsh:session): session opened for user test1 by (uid=0) Jun 23 22:16:28 lserver5 rshd[2239]: pam_unix(rsh:session): session closed for user test1
What does .rhosts contain for user test1 contain?
Is it different from the .rhosts file(s) on the other systems - including the permissions ?
