if you go to /etc/init.d/ you should see rlogin and rsh you can either manually start them there by typing in that dir ./rlogin start, or create a startup script that cd's to that dir and runs the above command. put that script into /etc/init.d/rc3.d/ and /etc/init.d/rc5.d/
This configuration is neither implemented nor supported by SUSE. I suggest you do it the "standard" way: SUSE 9.0: 1. make sure the rsh-server package is installed 2. run YaST2 -> Network Services (inetd) (a) Enable xinetd, (b) enable the shell and login service, i.e /usr/sbin/in.rlogind and /usr/sbin/in.rshd -aL servers SLES8.1:
I could not find any server parts on my SJDS/SLES8.1 CDs
I don't have SLES8.1 and therefore I cannot check it. But it sounds strange.
I tried to download and install rsh-server-v.017-291.i586.rpm and version 017-350, but didn't succeed to install them (conflicts).
If it's true then you have to copy these /usr/sbin/in.rlogind and /usr/sbin/in.rshd servers manually and fix the corresponding (x)inetd configuration. I cannot help more since I don't know the details of SLES8.1. The point to remember is that rshd and rlogind servers are usually started by (x)inetd and therefore you have to configure and enable the (x)inetd too. -- A.M.
