All of these servers have the identical account set up on them (same username & password). As part of an automated process a database is copied from one server to all the others using a combination of rsh and rcp. Everything has been working great on this cluster for 6+ months now. We have just set up a similar cluster running FreeBSD 2.2.7 and have set up the same account on all these servers. When we try to run this automated process to copy files between these servers we get a "Login incorrect" error. Two of us have now gone through everything we can think of to try to track this down. We've checked the $HOME/.rhosts file & verified its permissions, verified that rshd isn't commented out in /etc/inetd.conf on each target server, verified the account usernames & passwords, and tried just about everything but take a sledgehammer to the servers.... Can anybody think of what we might have missed? Are there any issues with rsh & rshd on FreeBSD 2.2.7? Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated! -Bruce To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
