I have google'd about with no success as yet. Any pointers would be helpful. If you have the /etc/xinetd.d/rsh file, make sure you have disable = false (or enable = true, whichever way) in it. Then restart your xinetd service using something like "rcxinetd restart". See if this works.
Thanks for that. The "disable = yes" I set to "no". It seems queer that that to enable a server they would use a double-negative, but anyhow, that's done. In my case "rcxinetd restart" does not work. Google returned another option, which is "/etc/init.d/xinetd restart" which also does not work. Here I am bogging down in my newbie problems. I would generally want to now do a global find for the file "rcxinetd" but I don't know how to do that in Linux (I come from FreeBSD). My thought is that maybe the command must be executed as an absolute address, or that I need to setup my PATH environment variable, but I don't know how to find where the file -is- if it does exist.
