Description strovato 1999-08-07 14:49:23 UTC

/usr/sbin/in.rexecd hangs on incoming connection; does not
function

Comment 1 Jeff Johnson 1999-08-08 16:31:59 UTC

The rexec protocol was broken, fixed now. Please reopen this bug if
upgrading to the latest rsh package from Raw Hide does not fix your
problem.

Comment 2 edward.connell 1999-09-08 14:41:59 UTC

rexecd is still broken in rawhide and the 6.1 beta (lorax) release.
Both use rsh-0.10-28.i386.rpm which contains netkit-rsh-0.10.  A new
version (netkit-rsh-0.15) is available at
ftp://ftp.uk.linux.org/pub/linux/Networking/netkit-devel/netkit-rsh
and fixes the hanging rexecd.

Comment 4 Jeff Johnson 1999-12-22 15:15:59 UTC

Raw Hide has rsh-0.16-1. Please reopen this bug if that does not fix the
rexecd problem.
