Hello,

I have a few boxes on a private network for running some batch jobs
where security is not a concern. Is there a way to allow root access via
telnet, rsh and rlogin?

I have tried modifying files in /etc/pam.d as well as /etc/securettys
and creating a .rhosts file in /root and nothing seems to work. I know this is
absurd from a security standpoint but the boxes are on their own lan.

Thanks,

Will

Try using secure shell. It checks permissions, and the ecrypted keys
add some security. You can ssh as root in RH 6.0.
