I have different accounts on both machines. I've looked at the documents on .rhosts files and I'm not sure what it's all about.. I have each machine with an .rhosts file in my home directory which looks like: host1 user1 host2 user2 No matter what I do (I'm playing with rsh and rcp) I get: Permission denied. I have no problem rcp'ing from each machine with NCSA telnet on ms/dos. (There's no password protection or security enabled with NCSA telent). Now how do I get these machines to talk rcp to each other? (FTP works with no problem -- but I want something a little more seamless). marty ARPA: leisner.henr@xerox.com GV: leisner.henr NS: martin leisner:wbst139:xerox UUCP: hplabs!arisia!leisner
