Description Kaufmann, Marc 2000-10-23 13:47:24 UTC 
rexec-calls from RH6.1 don't work anymore after update to RH7.0

sample:

[root@B0001111 /tmp]# rexec -l root -p xxxxxx bbbba110 uname
BBBBA110: Verbindungsaufbau abgelehnt
rexec: Error in rexec system call,
rexec: (The following system error may itself be in error)
rexec: Verbindungsaufbau abgelehnt

fixed typo in Summary
Comment 2 Nalin Dahyabhai 2000-10-24 18:56:04 UTC 
This looks like a glibc bug that crept in when the rexec() function was modified
to support IPv6 addresses.
