Not off-topic at all. Article 184821.1 on MetaLink has the setup = necessary for you to get rcp working. Also, Werner Puschitz' excellent = site http://www.puschitz.com has the step-by-step instructions. Since this is a test box, you could try (as root): mv /usr/bin/kerberos/rcp = /usr/bin/kerberos/rcp_ORIGINAL_DO_NOT_DELETE_07272004 ln -s /usr/bin/scp /usr/bin/kerberos/rcp The program locations above are based on RHAS3 (White Box, actually). = Type "which rcp" and "which scp" for your installed programs locations.

In order to install oracle software on all nodes we need to have "rcp" = enabled so that don't need to install oracle s/w on each and every node. The problem is that "rcp" is not working between nodes but scp works. How to enable "rcp" in RedHat or How to tell oracle cluster to use "scp" = to copy the software between each nodes? I am really sorry if the question is off topic.
