Hi again, I've got a mini network with two debian machines, and would like to set them up so that all users can login from one machine to the other without being asked for a password. I know I could use .rhosts files for this, but that requires every user to set it up. I would like a global solution.
I found the man page about hosts.equiv: The hosts.equiv file allows or denies hosts and users to use the r-commands (e.g. rlogin, rsh or rcp) without supĀ plying a password. But I can't seem to set it up correctly. I tried +mpci on one machine and +mpcii on the other (yes, those two are the host names), and I even tried a single '+', but I still get the password prompt. I just don't see what's wrong? Help, please! Thanks so much in advance, Andy. ____________________________________________________________________ Andy Spiegl, University of Technology, Muenchen, Germany E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] OR: [EMAIL PROTECTED] URL: http://www.appl-math.tu-muenchen.de/~spiegl PGP fingerprint: B8 48 24 7B DB 96 6F 1C D9 6D 8E 6C DB C2 E7 E9 o _ _ _ --------- __o __o /\_ _ \\o (_)\__/o (_) ------- _`\<,_ _`\<,_ _>(_) (_)/<_ \_| \ _|/' \/ ------ (_)/ (_) (_)/ (_) (_) (_) (_) (_)' _\o_ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
