First, I should mention the obligitary comment that you should use ssh rather than rsh (OpenSSH, for example, ships with AIX, I think on the bonus or linux tools CD).

However, if you want to use rsh, configuring it on AIX is exactly the same as on every other platform.

On the host that you want to rsh to create a .rhosts file in the user's home directory, owned by the user with permission 600. Put in it

Code:

host user

where "host" is the host you are coming from and "user" is the user account you are coming from.

There are other options and files, but this will work, so check out the man page if you want more info.

What is the difference between RSH and SSH?

rsh and ssh are similar in that they can execute commands on remote systems. The main difference between the two (besides the actual TCP ports) is that rsh traffic is not encrypted and therefore a security risk; ssh traffic is encrypted. The other main difference is that ssh is a secure replacement for telnet, whereas rsh can log into a remote system using the rlogin protocol, which is similar but not the same as telnet.
