Remote Execution (rexec command)

[rondonc]

Hi,

I have an application that interact with UnixWare 2.1.3, this application will be migrated to Linux RedHat 6.2. The application runs rexec command, and execute a shell script in the Unix Server, but when I run this application on Linux RedHat it doesn't run, because I get the following error:
"rexec:connect: The connection has been rejected rexec: the connection cannot be established"

And does not execute the shell script I want.

Ideas, tricks, etc ?

Thanks,
rondonc

Hi Everybody,

I have found the solution to my thread. These are the steps you have to take to execute rexec in Linux RedHat 6.2 at least !!! Follow these steps:

1. Install rsh-0.16-12 and rsh-server-0.16-12
2. Add the IP Address in the /etc/hosts
3. Delete the commentary in the line of exec in the file /etc/inetd.conf
4. Run the commmand /sbin/service inet restart

Well I hope this can help another people.
