Hello, I am trying to setup cdrecord with remote rscsi. Both the server and client have Debian unstable, and I have sucessfully setup ssh/rsh to use Hostbased authentication (using version 1, which I made the default). I hope someone on the list might be able to give me a suggestion as to what I'm doing wrong! ;) I looked for archives on lists.debian.org, but I couldn't find them.
In the listings below, the server is atelier, the client is spunky. For example, the following works: spunky:~$ rsh -l rscsi atelier test E0 Garbage command 0 Connection to atelier closed. Which tells me that I'm sucessfully connecting to rscsi, correct? However, if I try the following, it fails: spunky:~$ cdrecord dev=REMOTE:atelier -scanbus -vv -VV -dd dev: REMOTE:atelier speed: -1 fs: -1 Cdrecord 1.10 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) Copyright (C) 1995-2001 J?rg Schilling TOC Type: 1 = CD-ROM scsidev: 'REMOTE:atelier' devname: 'REMOTE:atelier' scsibus: -1 target: -1 lun: -1 scg__open(REMOTE:atelier) -1,-1,-1 Warning: Using remote SCSI interface. cdrecord: locuser: 'pardsbane' rscsiuser: 'pardsbane' host: 'atelier' rcmd: socket: m cdrecord: Permission denied. Cannot get connection to remote host. Cannot open SCSI driver. cdrecord: For possible targets try 'cdrecord -scanbus'. Make sure you are root. spunky:~$ If I try the same steps as root, rather than as a regular user, I get the same result, except that instead of: rcmd: socket: m the system stalls for about 1 minute, then prints: atelier.offthehill.net: Connection refused All other messages are exactly the same regardless of whether I am root or a regular user. Thanks again, I appreciate any help somene might be able to give. -Joshua -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
