Do you have a .rhosts file?

Read more on the man page

man remsh
man remshd

Consider to use ssh for more security.

Check the .rhosts file on BOTH server.

You should also check the /etc/hosts.equiv file.

Hey

Create the .rhosts file on both server.

e.g.
ServerA:
User:oracle
/home/oracle/.rhosts (content of this file)
ServerB oracle

ServerB:
User:oracle
/home/oracle/.rhosts (content of this file)
ServerA oracle

You can test it with rlogin.
e.g. on ServerB type
#rlogin ServerA

if you can connect without typing a password, then remsh should also work.
