No admin command in remsh

Aristotle — Mon, 05 May 2008 06:49:24 GMT

I've been setting up remsh in my HPUX server. All i can do is bdf,uname,uptime etc.

But i can not execute ifconfig,useradd etc.
# remsh scipl3 uname -a
HP-UX scipl3 B.11.11 U 9000/800 scipl3 unlimited-user license
# remsh scipl3 ifconfig -a
sh: ifconfig: not found.
# remsh scipl3 useradd test
sh: useradd: not found.
# remsh scipl3 uptime
3:47pm up 26 days, 1:34, 1 user, load average: 0.01, 0.01, 0.02

remsh scipl3 -n /usr/sbin/lanscan

remsh scipl3 -l root -n /usr/sbin/ifconfig lan0 or lan1 or lan2 (whatever it is)

remote account name must be equivalent to the originating account

remsh scipl3 -n ifconfig /usr/sbin/ifconfig lan2

By default, remsh uses the following path when executing the specified command:
/usr/bin:/usr/ccs/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/contrib/bin:/usr/local/bin

There is no ifconfig -a avble in HP-UX
You have to give full path of the command, if it is not in the above path or in the /usr/sbin.

Rgds.

Already configure that .rhosts, hosts.equiv. I guess you can not execute remsh if have not configrued those files. Yeah i know there's no ifconfig -a, in hp -ux. But the point is, the system do not know the command ifconfig.

# remsh scipl3 ifconfig lan0
sh: ifconfig: not found.
# remsh scipl3 ifconfig lan1
sh: ifconfig: not found.
# remsh scipl3 ifconfig vgscan
sh: ifconfig: not found.
# remsh scipl3 vgscan
