Hi All, We have some issue with rsh between 2 servers. OS: Solaris: 8 Running apps 11.5.9. I am able to perform rsh from srvr A to srvr B. but cant do from Srvr B to Srvr A. ( I have included the server names in the $HOME/.rhosts file) [srvrA:DEFAULT:oracle]> rsh srvrA id uid=102(oracle) gid=21(dba) [srvrB:DEFAULT:oracle]> rsh srvrA id erpora1s.med.ge.com: Connection refused This is forcing us to use ssh (which is fine between these servers). But ssh is a bit slow to copy 10 Gig between these servers. I am missing something somewhere. Could somebody throw somelight on this. (anything to be done from root ? we have access to root also) Thanks and Regards, Srinivas -- //www.freelists.org/webpage/oracle-l
