Hi In trying to fix a perl script I noticed that what was breaking it was a system call to rsh billybob "rcp /usr/spi/dobrin/peter1.sgi /temp/." This works fine between our SGI machines but on the cygwin boxes I either get nothing (on 1.1.6 or before) or, on the 1.1.8 version I get rcp: shell/tcp : unknown service if I rsh (rlogin) to the cygwin box interactively, rcp works fine. Everything else seems to work just fine too, I'm I doing something wrong or is this a known issue?
