It doesn't. RSH is obsolete, and should never be exposed to an untrusted network. It is not, and was never intended to be, a security feature.

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.


What do you need to set up in order for the rsh command to work in Linux?

RSH has been obsolete for over 20 years. You would need to find the source code for it, along with the (equally obsolete) libraries and compile it yourself. Nowadays, the rsh command is usually symlinked to ssh. Using SSH just requires installing the SSH client package for your distribution (apt install openssh-client on Debian/Ubuntu, yum install openssh-clients on CentOS). It can't be used to connect to legacy RSH servers, though.

How you configure rsh in aix?

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 itCode:host userwhere "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 are the differences between Windows and Linux server security?

There is security on Linux and there is no security on Windows. Well, there is, but it's quite weak compared to Linux. Among other: -Better rights management -Kernel security modules, some of which were developed by US government, and some by security-specialized companies, so you have the idea. -Since Linux is extensively used for server solutions, you can guess that most of server software is pretty much top-notch.
