Hi FreeBSD-netters I am debugging a multicast routeing protocol under FreeBSD and would like to simultaneously start the m/c routing demon in question on several FreeBSD routers at once. The demon has to run with root privileges. I would like to do something along the lines of i) logging in to one FreeBSD router (as root) ii) run a shell script which starts the demon on the local router and then issues rsh commands to the other routers in the test network to start up their routeing demons. I am however tripping up over rsh permissions etc. I have tried to set up an /.rhosts on router2 with the line router1 root so that router1 can issue a rsh command directed to router2 with root privileges something like rsh -l root router2 "run demon command" but I get permission denied messages each time. I also tried /etc/hosts.equiv with the same line. Can anyone point me in the right direction to get something like this working ?
