A big HOWDY from Phoenix AZ,
We have two "identically" configured AS4100 servers running 4.0g on our
network.
As root, I can issue rcp commands from server2 to/from server1 with success,
both pulling and pushing data as shown below:
server2
# pwd
/temp
# ls test*
test.file
# rcp test.file server1:/tmp/test_from_2.txt
# rcp server1:/tmp/test_from_2.txt ./test_from_1.txt
# ls test*
test.file test_from_1.txt
However, when I try to do the same from server1 to/from server2, I receive
nothing but grief:
server1
# pwd
/tmp
# ls test*
test_from_2.txt
# rcp test_from_2.txt server2:/temp/test_from_ems1.txt
Couldn't look up address for your hostPermission denied.
# rcp server2:/temp/test.file ./test_from_ems2.txt
Couldn't look up address for your hostPermission denied.
I have checked the /etc/hosts.equiv files on both servers, as well as the
.rhost files, and they seem similar, each containing the other servers name
followed by the user name thus:
server1
-------
server2 root
server2
-------
server1 root
One more piece of information which might be of use. From server2, I am able
to NFS mount directories which reside on server1. But when I try the same
thing from server1, once again, I get nothing but grief, as shown below:
NFS Configuration on server1:
When I try mounting the shared directory which resides on server2, I get
this error:
Can't Share server2:/u06/11i_patches
Bad MNT RCP: server2:/u06/11i_patches: RCP: Authentication error; why=Server
rejected credential
I can successfully ping and telnet using hostname or ip address between the
two servers with no problem at all.
Has anyone any ideas as to what needs fixing?
