Corinna,

Sorry, being 3 deep in interrupts I didn't proof that line.

It should read:
If I run inetd from the command line, rsh no longer works, 
it just hangs.

In fact it hangs on stdin, a ^d will get it to close.
It ignores the command after the machine name.
echo pwd | rsh ntbox echo xxx
results in: //server/homedir
and not in: xxx

Any insight is appreciated.
Thanks, Mark Keil
