Okay, I've narrowed the problem down quite a bit. As previously reported, in CentOS 5.2 I get this: $ cvs log Makefile poll: protocol failure in circuit setup cvs [log aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if any) Turns out this is a problem with rsh: $ rsh khan ls connect to address 10.24.15.48 port 544: Connection refused Trying krb4 rsh... connect to address

Hello all, I'm not quite sure what has changed in the recent rsh commands, but I can't seem to get around the password promting. I need a clnk rsh between two machines in order to run my backup script. I added all the usual .rhosts with the proper permissions et al added the xinetd.d confilg files, opened ports 543 and 544 in my firewall, yet when I use the rsh commands, I get either a

IF ssh is a replacement for rlogin,rsh etc I can accept it respecting rlogin=false as rlogin does and rsh does not, however scp is a replacement for rcp, and rcp does NOT use rlogin attribute, so the implementation is NOT standard as scp fails if rlogin=false, but rcp succeeds, as documented. thanks mark

hi... i've got an "access denied" issue with rsh on one of my boxes (and before we start, no "use ssh" comments.. rsh is what i'm dealing with for now!!) i've got a few boxes in my network, and i can successfully rsh into them with no issue. however, on one box, i can't access it using rsh, and i'm running out of things to try... kind of curious. i can

Thanks to everyone who has replied to my emails so far - to summarise: AIX allows setting of rlogin=false and and a su group, or a list of users that are permitted to "su" to root. ( or other functional ids ) This means with entries in /etc/ftpusers, it is possible to : 1/ Track who used root via sulog and or external logging 2/ Protect root even if the root password is compromised 3/

I'm new to rsync and trying to configure it to run through either the daemon or rsh (ssh is not avalilable). Doing an 'rlogin production' results in a password prompt - which I want rid of, as we're basically going to have a robot user running a cron job that utilises rsync. I'm at a loss as to why I can't configure rlogin to user hosts.equiv or similar - any help on this

Dear list, I'm trying to get a Thumper (Sun Fire X4500) to play nice with AD so that we can offer a nearline storage service. Since many of our users will have multiple group memberships, it's imperative that samba be able to recurse through the groups that a user is a member of to determine if they have access to a resource. What happens instead is that every user who authenticates is

I sent this the other day, but did not get any replies, can anyone help? Hi All, I have a sparc solaris 8 server running samba 2.2.11 (which i complied with winbind). The server has been running for years and has about 20 local users setup using local files for openssh and rexec logins, and samba shares. They each use samba to map to their home directory and a common shared folder. They also

Hello group, what is the preferred method to connect to asterisk cli over network? I need to run asterisk cli commands remotely. Sharing the unix socket through NFS, if that's working? Or any other approaches, despite using SSH or rlogin, rsh. Thank you Paul

I am attempting to use winbind for Telnet authentication but winbind pam doesn't recognize ads realm or smb.conf workgroup..see error snapshot. pdtsun03 is hostname of solaris 10 ADS domain member running samba 3.0.11. "net ads join" worked..."net ads user" returns all MYADSDOMAIN users and samba shares work from both unix and NT side. one note..After make install, I

(another in an ongoing list of things i just want to clarify for the sake of future courses taught on centos.) from this RHEL doc page: http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/5/html/Deployment_Guide/s1-openssh-server-config.html the reader is advised to, for the sake of security, remove/disable vsftpd, ostensibly in favour of sftp/sftp-server. really? i can obviously

I am doing rsync over a private network. Encryption is not required. Currently rsync over ssh works, but requires too many CPU cycles (especially when doing a lot of transfers) on a CPU-bound system. I need to use rsh instead. The problem is, I can either set rsh to allow transfers without a password, or it won't let me transfer files at all. I need rsh to ask for a password. The network

This might have been covered before and I've missed it. If so, sorry in advance. The file sshd.pam.generic didn't work for me on Linux RH6, I guess it's a Solaris file. Instead I copied the file /etc/pam.d/rlogin to /etc/pam.d/sshd . I wonder if this isn't a good way to go about things anyway, have an install target that does just that? Perhaps the rsh file is more appropriate

In following up on the rsh "problem" I was having earlier, I decided to try out the suggestion Felipe sent about using system-config-securitylevel-tui to open up ports 513 and 514, but that doesn't seem to do the job, either. # iptables -L Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT) target prot opt source destination RH-Firewall-1-INPUT all -- anywhere anywhere

Dear list, How do I test whether I have access to my winbind LDAP backend from my Solaris 9 machine? My LDAP database is held on a Redhat 9.0 machine also running Samba 3.0.0. I know winbind works because getent and wbinfo show up my NT users and groups. I would also like to have people log into my Solaris 9 machine with their NT usernames, I have this working on Redhat already but Solaris is

Hi Everybody, I m running RedHat 9 Linux and I have the rsync-2.5.5-4 package. When I m trying to the following: [root@myhost_name root]# /usr/bin/rsync -va 10.0.8.190:usr/local/src /local_folder I got the following error: Couldn't get address for your host (10.0.8.53) rsync: connection unexpectedly closed (0 bytes read so far) rsync error: error in rsync protocol data stream (code

Hi I am looking for assistance with setting up R under Sun grid engine 6 (6.0-update7). I would like to set up transparent interactive access to R using either a qlogin or qrsh solution. While it basically works using either method, I reach the same sticking point. There seems to be an issue with signalling or something, as R works ok until a non-R command is typed in - eg "blah" - at

Hi ya'll- I've got this odd openssh problem with Solaris 10 I was hoping someone could shed some light on. Not sure if it is a bug... Basically I'm trying to use pubkeys as an auth method, but am having issues. I can log in using passwords no problem, but as soon as it notices a matching public key it closes the connection. I ran the sshd server (on Solaris 10 box) in debug

Update: Success!!!! The corrective action was to move the below pam.conf settings to the top of each section. auth sufficient /usr/lib/security/pam_winbind.so try_first_pass account sufficient /usr/lib/security/pam_winbind.so try_first_pass session sufficient /usr/lib/security/pam_winbind.so try_first_pass -----Original Message----- From: Garrett, Joseph Sent: Thursday,
