Hide Forgot
When I upgraded from rsh-0.10-28.i386.rpm to rsh-0.16-1.i386.rpm, rlogin stopped working for me (rsh still works fine). On the remote system, I get a normal-looking message in /var/log/messages: Jan 3 01:10:00 dunwoody1 in.rlogind[6248]: connect from c130441-k.smateo1.sfba.home.com Jan 3 01:10:01 dunwoody1 pam_rhosts_auth[6248]: allowed to dunwoody.sfba.home.com as dunwoody On the local system (running rlogin <remotesystem>), I simply get a "connection closed" message. Evidently rlogin got stricter in rsh-0.16-1 in a way that I don't understand. I've tried changing the permissions and contents of my /etc/hosts, /etc/hosts.{allow,deny}, /etc/hosts.equiv, and /etc/pam.d/rlogin in various ways, all to no avail -- I still get "connection closed". The documentation (e.g. man in.rlogind) doesn't seem to have changed materially. I'd greatly appreciate any suggestions.
Fixed in rsh-0.16-3 in Raw Hide. Make sure that you pick up the new rsh-server-0.16-3 package, the fix is in /usr/sbin/in.rlogind in that package.
