Let's review your setup. You want to be able to rsh/rlogin to root on a remote system, right? Did you - allow root to login from remote by adding the ttyp* consoles to /etc/securetty (man 5 securetty)? - enable .rhosts for the superuser by adding -h to the in.rlogind optionlist in /etc/inetd.conf (man 8 rlogind)? That's all you need to do to get this working on a bo R6 system. I just tried it on one of my boxes, and it worked just fine. OT: Aren't you on the TLUG list, too?
