TITLE : I cannot get global rcp access working. OS LEVEL : AIX 4.2.x DATE : 16/03/99 VERSION : 1.0 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- The /etc/hosts.equiv file has an single "+" entry in it which should allow all users on all machines to have access, but this is not working. Check the permissions of /etc/host.equiv using :- ls -l /etc/hosts.equiv It should be :- -rw------- (read/write owner only) Correct using :- chmod 600 /etc/hosts.equiv There is a known problem with 4.2 installation that sets the permission of the file incorrectly to 664 (read/write owner, read/write group, read other).
