- Hi all.
-
- We recently ran into a perplexing problem after I upgraded our
- 4D/30 to 4.0.1.
-
- A user on a SPARCStation 2 had previously been able to do a remote
- shell to the SGI to run some graphics programs. Now his TCP connection
- is refused. The error can be replicated by trying to a "rsh blanktime 0"
- from the command line. The most interesting part of this problem is that
- the command CAN be executed from another SGI machine. It seems to be a
- Sun/SGI problem. (Yes, both the Sun and the second SGI are in the .rhosts
- file). Rsh's to do such things as execute the date command work fine.
-
- From Sun(bette) to SGI(kate):
-
- %rsh kate blanktime 0
- (long pause)
- %dgl error (TCP connect): Connection refused
- %dgl error (default init): default dglopen(brackett@bette,4) returned -127
-
- From SGI(hermes)to SGI(kate):
-
- %rsh kate blanktime 0
- %
-
- Sorry if this is a FAQ.
-
- Thanks for any help.
