We have tons of bio apps that use stdout/stderr to send data. These
programs can send gigs through SSH. We would prefer if it didn't have
to get encrypted, passed over our secure network, and then be
decrypted. It generates excess work for our Master node. Maintaining
the keys also becomes an issue. We have 4 different platforms here.
one little hickup with ssh means that everybody's accounts have to be
fixed. If we use global rsh then we only have to fix it on the master/
slave images. Plus is just makes PBS run smoother.
Anyways, I think I got rlogin working. I can login password-less if I
rlogin to localhost. Still can't do anything remotely though. Got
BSU's cluster god to help me out a bit.. he's awesome with this
stuff. When I get a final solution mind if I post to the list? The
net seems to be full of people asking about this and nobody actually
getting it to work.

Might I ask what the intended use is?
If you are pushing out commands, there are other tools for that.
If you are deploying a job, we use SSH on our 512 node system just
fine.

ssh -vvv doesn't tell me where the failure happens. For now I have
given up on ssh and am just working on RSH. Seems that nobody
knows how
to set RSH up on clusters. Problem is that 500+ ssh sessions can
eat p
CPU time on the master in a hurry. Problem is that RSH has no
debugging
information at all.. Closest I have gotten is getting xinetd to
warn on
startup errors. Whats a guy got to do to get information from his
daemons? =)
(BTW, Why does everybody shrug off rsh? For clusters its perfectly
acceptable and if the cluster is large enough then its nearly
required.)

Does `ssh -vvv` not give any useful debugging info?

It might be interesting to look at any patches they apply that
