Hi!

Is it possible to force the use of a specific port when using rsh command between AIX node?

Edit the /etc/services file and then issue:

refresh -s inetd

to make the changes effective.

The probleme is that I have 2 nodes on different subnetworks. The network administrator did allowed the rsh command so can do from node A to node B:
#rsh nodeB

but I can't do :
#rsh nodeB ls

The system hangs a while then give me the prompt back without error.

When the network administrator opens all the ports on the firewall every think is ok but you cannot call it a firewall anymore.


Is there an other port to open so that command:

# rsh nodeB ls

could work?

Thanks in advance.
