I am trying to configure a Cluster Usage system. I do as it is write in documentation and I have problem with RSH configuration. When I run a command:
rsh maly-ascen ls
I get an error:
RSHD: ppalka: could not retrieve password: Please login and run rsetup.
What the problem is?

You will need to contact your UNIX administrator for this problem. RSH is highly dependent on the system's security. Type "man rsh" at the command prompt to learn more about Remote SHell.

Sorry for not being much of a help here.

but I want to configure it on Windows 2000. I am using MKS Toolkit with DS EE. When I execute:
rsh localhost ls
everything is fine, but when I use my computer name
rsh testowy ls
I get message: permission denied.
Does anybody know how to solve this problem?

Hi,
The answer still stands even on windows (you just can't use the syntax you were givven).
contact your sysadmin for resolving permisions issue.

Be aware not every organization permits use of rsh! (as part of their security policy)

IHTH,
