Hello all,

Thanks so much for all your responses. I did indeed have
/.rhosts and /etc/hosts.equiv dialed, but still couldn't
get to my machines from his system. I got

# rsh sys6
sys6: unknown host

Here's the kicker!!!! I did a kill -HUP on ypbind on all
his machines and everything is happy. Somehow the bind
got hosed, and as soon as I gave it a good swift kick in
the pants, all was well. Thanks so much for the thirty
so odd answers. No one suggested this, so if anyone has
this problem in the future, HUP YPBIND!!!

This truly is a great list,

Thanks again,

Terry
