Hi!,
I am trying to setup rsh and rsync for remote backup but I m not able to set rsh which from various sources I have came to know that there is one file called .rhosts where is it ?? in redhat 7.1 is there some global file or some user specific file and if at all I want to telnet as root directly NOT WITH "su -l root" what to do I would like to setup up rsh from particular machine so that I would be able to login without password, and this a version specific I m using RH 7.1
Hiten.

s/rsh/ssh/ man ssh-keygen and man ssh (and sshd)
where is it ?? in redhat 7.1 is there some global file or some user specific file
.rhosts would be in the users home directory. Trust me, you don't want to use this. Use ssh wth key based authentication and non root accounts.
and man ssh-agent too, whilke you are at it.
