I believe the rest of the r-commands (like `rcp` and `rsh`) are built on top of the `rexec` protocol. I know that when you turn off the `rexec` daemon, they all go away. {grin} Look at the source for the `rcp` command in Linux or BSD-something. -- Randal L. Schwartz, Perl hacker	[reply]

Not necessarily true, as I can verify that Solaris will still allow rcp and rsh after commenting rexec out of the inetd.conf and doing a `# kill -HUP $(ps -ef \| grep "[i]netd" \| awk '{print $2}')` [download] or am I missing something?	[reply] [d/l]

thanks. that might do the trick. rcp should work with it, since one of the args for the method (i don't remember the name) is the 'r' command.	[reply]
