Hello,
I just noticed that rsh does not seem to execute the .profile in the target
account when a command is run.
Example:
account A's .profile on machine some_host:
TRALALA=Hello
export TRALALA
account A's .rhosts (Prot = 0600):
some_host B
Now suppose account A contains a shell script (test_script) like this:
echo $TRALALA
And if user B on host some_host issues the following command:
rsh -l A some_host test_script
I expected to see the word "Hello" appear but nothing happens, it's as if
the .profile was not executed or that the variable was not exported... Is
this normal ?
Thanks
