in.rshd

in.rshd

[Kirkwood, David A]

I need to add the capability to rsh from a remote system to a linux
workstation due to some 3rd party s/w  limitations. I'm running Suse 9.1
which has no in.rshd on the system. I'm looking for the source code but have
been unable to locate it. Does anyone know where I can find it so I can load
it on my system, or does someone know how I can get sshd to respond to a rsh
request with no password, interactive acknowledgement , i.e. to behave
exactly like rshd. Security is a non issue in this case.

 

As always, all help is appreciated.

 

Thanks,

 

Dave

That's because rsh is part of netkit

Try

ftp://ftp.linux.org.uk/pub/linux/Networking/netkit/netkit-rsh-0.17.tar.gz

Alternatively, use the SRPM.

I think (from memory) that SuSE _does_ have the rsh server daemon, but
they have in their infinite wisdom renamed it to something else
(surprise!)
