Hi there,
1) One linux systems with samba setup.
2) One Win2K server with Interix (SFU) 3.0 setup.
3) One linux systems.

I was able to map the linux systems to win2K server and open it from win2k (using Korn shell with /dev/fs/Z and creatle a link " ln -s /dev/fs/Z /Z)
When I rlogin from another linux to Win2k Server, I was able to logon. However, I could not open this /dev/fs/Z with the following: " No Such file or directory"

Any help are very appreciated.

It centers around how permissions on the mount and the server using SMB happen. The permissions for access are set for the use that did the mount. The user doing the rlogin, being a different user, doesn' t have the same access because the mount point permissions don' t allow it.

In short I' d recommend using the " /net" filesystem or NFS (both of which are with SFU 3.0) instead of SMB. /net is the prefered of the two when possible.

/net is the way to access drives that you can from the Win32 side access with UNC paths. So " /net/hostname/share/dirpath/filename" is the general syntax. An actual example for the C drive on a machine named BUG would be " /net/BUG/c_drive/SFU/etc/inetd.conf" to access the SFU installed inetd.conf file.
It' s recommended that when you set a home directory for a user in a domain that you use /net-UNC method.

Thanks Rodney
I got another problem when I ran the command from a unix box to SFU. The syntax: ' rsh system1 -l host1+user ' touch /home/user/test'
I got the error: Permission denied. All the systems setting are allowed rwx and mounted. Any ideal?

Thanks in help.

have you set up your .rhosts file in the Windows user' s home directory ? This would be the home directory saved in the user account database (which may be different from the HOME env. variable).

Have you set up the correct entries in the .rhosts file ?

When you set up the " .rhosts" file did you:
- set owner to the user
- set file mode to 600 (rw-------)

Which directory did you place " .rhosts" in?
Does this directory match the user' s home directory (use ' finger' to show what the user' s home directory is in the user database)?

How is your DNS set for your machine?
For security a host is only trusted when the forward and reverse DNS A records match for name and number. So if the forward record is " cat.foo.com" /" 192.168.0.12" and the reverse is " 192.168.0.12" /" meow.foo.com" then the records do _not_ match and are therefore a security problem.
