Hi,

look into 'man rhosts'.
Short for user uu, who exists on A and B:
@B: print A>>~/.rhosts; chmod 600 ~/.rhosts

craete a .rhosts file in home directory .
and put the respective entry .

if u r put only plus symbel on that , the respective user can login from any machine with out passwd .

eg :
vi /.rhosts

Enable rlogin between 2 or more servers

suppose there are 2 servers (server A and server B)

to allow rlogin between the 2 or more servers we need to do the following things

1. login to serverA.
2. make entry in /etc/hosts for the remote host i.e. serverB.
3. E.g. serverB 192.168.1.2 # the IP address 192.168.1.2 is of the serverB.
4. create a file /etc/hosts.equiv and make an entry in it for host i.e. serverB followed by the user. for the user from the host serverB who is allowed remote login access to the serverA.
5. E.g. serverB vijay #user vijay from the server serverB has remote login access to the local server serverA.

OR

1. login to serverB.
2. goto the user's home directory to whom rlogin access has to be given.
3. create a file $HOME/.rhosts
4. make the entry of the host name in this file i.e. the hostname whose access is to be allowed for the user. i.e. serverA

And why to use rlogin, which transferrers the data in non-secure way. Use password less SSH. Save your audit and be secure.Document attached for configuration.

Sumit,
It was strange to see you record, "I have assigned points to 4 of 95 responses"
