- I am having trouble doing a 'rdist' distribution from
- an Ultrix DECstation to an IRIX SGI machine.
-
- The error message I get is:
-
- rdist: connection failed: version numbers don't match
-
- which the man page suggests may be due to a problem starting
- the shell. rlogin. rcp, rsh, etc, all work fine in the
- same direction. rdist in the other direction (SGI to Ultrix)
- works fine. I can't find anything wrong with the various
- .login, .cshrc, etc files - the problem occurs even when these
- are removed.
-
- The versions in question:
-
- IRIX Release 4.0.5 System V shift3
-
- ULTRIX V4.2A (Rev. 47) System #1:
- UWS V4.2A (Rev. 420)
-
- Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
-
- Thanks
