rsh help needed


I have to be able to use rsh, beause I am setting up a Linux cluster and the cluster software needs rsh (this is why I am not using ssh)

I have 2 computers : cserver , node01 . On both I have created the ~\.rhosts and the \etc\hosts.equiv files.
However it just seems not to work. If I do this from cserver:

[username@cserver username]$ rsh node01 pwd
node01: Connection refused - is the error I get

If I do the same command from node01:

[username@node01 username]$ rsh cserver pwd
poll: protocol failure in circuit setup - is the error I get

I have just installed RH 9 on both computers and as far as I know they are setup completely the same. I know that they are connected in the network because I am able to ping from one to the other . I just dont know why my rsh does not work.

Please give me an advise
Thank you for your time and help

Martin

check ur firewall and the rsh config file under /etc/xinetd.d/.

/var/log/secure and /var/log/messages should give a hint.

I'm not sure why the rsh rely on rlogin. when I enable the rlogin service, I can use the rsh command

chkconfig rlogin
chkconfig xined
