There shouldn't be an rsh process running. xinetd starts it when a
user connects.
The best way to troubleshoot xinetd problems is to start xinetd in
debugging mode.
xinetd -d
If you see that the servive started then you can do a netstat -ap and
look for the service name in there (shell/login/exec for rsh/rlogin/
rexec). Once there you should be good to go =)

I'm looking for some help in setting up netkit rsh.
Please no comments about how rsh in unsecure and all that = I know
that, but I need rsh specifically to hook into a tool that my IT
department uses for backups.
So, I've got netkit-rsh and xinetd installed.
In the /etc/xinetd.d/rsh file I've changed the following from:
disable yes
to
disable no
Then I restarted xinetd. At this point there is an xinetd process,
but no rsh (rshd or in.rsh) process running.
A quick look in the log shows that one xinetd service has started:
May 17 13:47:21 neserv-1 xinetd[7141]: xinetd Version 2.3.13 started
with libwrap loadavg options compiled in.
May 17 13:47:21 neserv-1 xinetd[7141]: Started working: 1 available
service
So, the question is - what am I missing?
Any and all assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jared
