<DIV></DIV>>allen> Hi, i know that it is not recommanded, but i just want to try
<DIV></DIV>>allen> it. i created /etc/hosts.equiv and $HOME/.rhosts on my solaris,
<DIV></DIV>>allen> and tried to rlogin from another linux machine by an account on
<DIV></DIV>>allen> both of them, it still asked for passwd.
<DIV></DIV>>
<DIV></DIV>>Often this means that the reverse lookup for the IP you're connecting
<DIV></DIV>>from returns something else than you expect. For example, if your
<DIV></DIV>>linux box is known as foo.homeunix.net (a DynDNS domain), but the
<DIV></DIV>>reverse lookup provided by your ISP returns something like
<DIV></DIV>>ip-123.clueless.com, and you put foo.homeunix.net in the hosts files,
<DIV></DIV>>it won't work.
