annyoing messages from rsh
 

This is my passwordless SSH connection:


Connection to localhost closed.
[kc40@slave ~]$ ssh localhost date
Wed Aug 3 00:36:08 BST 2005
[kc40@slave ~]$ ssh localhost
Last login: Wed Aug 3 00:35:52 2005 from slave
[kc40@slave ~]$


It's good!
However, this is my passwordless RSH connection:


[kc40@slave ~]$ rsh localhost date
connect to address 127.0.0.1: Connection refused
Trying krb4 rsh...
connect to address 127.0.0.1: Connection refused
trying normal rsh (/usr/bin/rsh)
Wed Aug 3 00:36:29 BST 2005
[kc40@slave ~]$ rsh localhost
connect to address 127.0.0.1: Connection refused
Trying krb4 rlogin...
connect to address 127.0.0.1: Connection refused
trying normal rlogin (/usr/bin/rlogin)
Last login: Wed Aug 3 00:36:13 from slave
[kc40@slave ~]$


Does anyone know how to make rsh stop doing whatever it's doing that it's getting connection refused twice? I have edited the /etc/xinetd.d/rsh and /etc/xinetd.d/rlogin files, setting 'disable' to 'no'. Help most appreciated!
