I don't know if this is a bug or a feature... I am using a diskless client station, which mounts its / from an NFS server. When the client's /etc/hosts.equiv file is hardlinked to the server's /etc/hosts.equiv file, I won't be able to rlogin the client without supplying my password. But if the same /etc/hosts.equiv file is a standalone file (not hardlinked to the server's file), everything works fine. Any ideas ? Regards, -- MaXX
