Disabling rlogin

Guys,

I want to disable "rlogin", what should I do?
Also, what means can we use to replace it?
Are there any other ways to connect to server remotely besides "rlogin"?
Could someone please share the link to IP firewall software and how to install it?

Re: Disabling rlogin

Wahyono,
The following are answers to your questions

1. Disable rlogin
edit /etc/inetd.conf and comment protocols
that start with an r
remove .rhosts file from you machine
setup /etc/hosts.equiv to prevent login
from all machines (deny all)

2. I would suggest that you look at
installing ssh on your machine, the
details of which could be found at and
its free

3. As for your firewall for Tru64, i would suggest that you look at "Internet Express for Tru64 Unix", the details of this could be found at

Let me know if you have any question

Don't think you can install HP-UX sw-depots on a Tru64 U*x system.
Anyway on the more recent versions OSFSSHBASE is a standarde subset on the distribution CD.
On a not-so-recent version, you can install the kit from:

Wahyono,
Johan is very true, sorry diregard my SSH recommended link in previous post...its for HP-UX. In addition to Johan's recommendation for SSH, you can also look at OpenSSH as follows
