Hello,

We have a problem using rsh with PC-NFS. We have a small network of
PC:s connected to an Apollo DN4000 running pcnfsd. To make things easy
for the users we have created a dummy account with no password, the
account is not valid so you can't login on it but there is an entry in
/etc/passwd so pcnfs recognizes it. The problem is that if I do a
'rsh host /bin/ls' using the dummy account it works fine, but when I
login as myself or anybody else I get:

Permission denied.
rcmd: Too many open files.

I have tried increasing the number of files using /f with pcnfs.sys
and also with the files= command of MS-DOS but nothing seems to help.

Has anybody seen this problem and does anybody have a solution.?

Yours,
	Roger Lindell
