Description of problem:
When a file is transferred using rcp from HP-UX 10.2 to RedHat 7.2, there is a 
31 second delay in xinetd as viewed in /var/log/secure and /var/log/messages.  
There is no delay from HP-UX 10.2 to RedHat 6.2 or from RedHat 6.2 to RedHat 7.2

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 7.2


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. rcp -p filename www4:/home/green
2.
3.
	

Actual Results:  Even with a 1 line file, there was a 31 second delay and then 
the file was transferred.  Causes problems when many files are transferred.

Expected Results:  No delay for 1 line file.  Same time to transfer a file 
between different servers.

Additional info:

The following is from /var/log/secure and /var/log/messages

Authorization or security mismatch problem.

Sounds like a local configuration issue, most likely related to a timeout for
identd... check to see if you have logging onf that on in your configuration files.

Comment 2 Bill Nottingham 2006-10-18 18:25:07 UTC
Red Hat Linux is no longer supported by Red Hat, Inc. If you are still
running Red Hat Linux, you are strongly advised to upgrade to a
current Fedora Core release or Red Hat Enterprise Linux or comparable.
Some information on which option may be right for you is available at
http://www.redhat.com/rhel/migrate/redhatlinux/.

Red Hat apologizes that these issues have not been resolved yet. We do
want to make sure that no important bugs slip through the cracks.
If this issue is still present in a current Fedora Core release, please
open a new bug with the relevant information.

Closing as CANTFIX.
