I have two debian hamm systems networked in my house. I want to use rlogin as root go access both machines. I also need this ability to use rmt so that I can do remote backups, this also requires rlogin authentication. I am trying to do it the simple way using the .rhosts file. I have removed the /etc/securetty file but I am still unable to rlogin. How do I correct this problem? Wayne Cuddy CRB-WEB (C & H Consulting) http://www.crb-web.com wayne@crb-web.com
