I am having problems getting rsh to work.
I think my problem is with .rhosts and hosts.equiv
i read the man.
here is what i got:
/root/.rhosts:
ftp	root
www	root
ns2	root
news	root

/etc/hosts.equiv:
ftp
www
ns2
news

What else do i need to do to be able to run command like 
rsh thishost ls
as a root.  Or did i put something wrong in the .rhosts and hosts.equiv?
tia.
val.
