In my experience, after setting up ssh to work, it's pretty much a drop in replacement for rsh. By that I mean I've found that, again once set up, if I simply change rsh -> ssh everything else works without a change. And I believe that many more people know and use ssh than rsh meaning you'd probably get more support by using ssh. Maybe you could describe exactly what you are doing with rsh... -- Andrew DeFaria If it's true that we are here to help others, then what exactly are the others here for? -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
