Pushing linux client from HPUX cell manager

[Doug Brinkman - DRI CMA]

Hi,

In Data Protector, I'm trying to push a DP client to a linux box. I've disabled the linux firewall but get "bad username or password" error. The password has been verified several times now.
Any ideas?

Thanks,
Ed

Here are the steps.

1) /etc/securetty add in at the bottom, rsh, rlogin, and rexec
2) edit /etc/host.equiv
hp01 root
where hp01 is your cell manager. Copy the host.equiv to your home directory and rename it as .rhosts.
3)
make sure these rsh services in /etc/xinet.d/ are enabled
for example:

service rlogin
{
disable = no
}
4) restart the xinetd daemon since these rsh daemon are a part of it

5) Push the client from the cell manager.

6) once done remove the .rhosts and host.eqiv

regards.
