rsh over ppp via slirp
I am having trouble getting an rsh to run over a dial in ppp
connection using slirp. I have had no troubles with any other
networking programs. If I do an "rsh <machine>" where <machine> is my
provider then it does an rlogin as expected. If I do an
"rsh <machine> command" the command never gets executed and the rsh
never returns anything, it just hangs at the prompt. I can kill it
with a ^C just fine. I tried watching the process on the <machine>
with a second login session and nothing ever shows up. Does rsh use
some ports or something that are not getting redirected correctly with
the slirp emulation? I looked in /etc/services and didn't find any
reference to rsh. I am doing this because I want to run xbiff from
<machine> and display on my Linux box. I can run xbiff by hand from
<machine> and have it display on my machine just fine. Any hints.
Thanks,
Brian
