Actually no, but...

>From the standpoint of my first 
box, NbBSD (freebsd 6.0) I did the following steps

1) added 
inetd_enable="YES" at the end of /etc/rc.conf 
2) modified /etc/inetd.
conf uncommenting the line
shell   stream  tcp     nowait  root    
/usr/libexec/rshd       rshd
(I don't know if it helps, anyway!)
3) 
/etc/rc.d/inetd start
4) I've checked the presence of inetd via top. It 
existed!!
5) Under user victor there's a .rhosts file containing:
uffbsd.myd.prv  victor

(user victor exists on the box uffbsd and 
uffbsd.myd.prv is also present in the box NbBSD in /etc/hosts: I can 
ping it!)

6) I reciprocate the same  configuring steps on the other 
machine uffbsd.

Well in the end:
# rsh uffbsd
uffbsd.myd.prv: 
Connection refused

Please help
