Rsh on wu-ftpd

[Moez]

HI

I have a problem to configure a restricted FTP access.
I have AIX V 4.3, and I installed wu-ftp. The account anonymous work well, but when I want to use an user account with Rsh the login is deny !!

I added the account on /etc/ftpaccess, and in /etc/passwd with the file ftponly and Rsh defined, which is correctly noted in /etc/shells.
The user's home directory have permissions (chmod 755), and is repertoried on group file.
Besides, the Rsh work on the local machine !

Thanks

1) rsh is not related to ftp...
2) is login allowed?
if telnet/rsh/rlogin should be allowed:

chuser login='true' rlogin='true'

username
(->

smitty chuser)

or
for an ftp-only-account:

chuser login='false' rlogin='false'

username
3) rsh has nothing to do with /etc/shells
if you do rsh machinename ...
the user has to have a valid shell like /bin/ksh...
4) what do you want to do: rsh or ftp ????

Hi jpmsh

I'm not talking about remote shell but about Restricted Shell !!!
Besides, maybe you know if there is an application to read office files (.doc, .exc ,.ppt ..) on AIX.

Thanks a lot
