Hi,

I have a cygwin install with rshd running and
I'm trying to do an rsh from a Linux host:

$ rsh myhost date
Permission denied.

I have the same username/password and $HOME on
both the Linux machine and myhost.

myhost:/etc/hosts.equiv is just a single line +
as is ~/.rhosts.


myhost:/var/log/inetd.log reports this when rsh fails:

someone wants shell
accept, ctrl 3
+ Closing from 20
2160 execl /usr/sbin/in.rshd
2160 reaped, status 0x100


Anyone have any luck rsh'ing from Linux to cygwin?
