Yes, of course. Create a .rhosts in the users home directory containing the hosts that should be permitted to login, optionally with usernames on those hosts. It works more or less the same as on other unices. Enable shell and/or rlogin in /etc/inetd.conf as well. Don't use it on a box that's on the internet, though. Not without firewalling the rlogin port. There are too many risks associated with rpc for that. regards Anders On Fri, 2001-10-05 at 23:39, Cleary_Mike@emc.com wrote:
Can one do a remote login (rsh not telnet) to a linux box without authentication (i.e. no password)? In other words, it recognizes the user and doesn't require a password.
