I've installed SFU on an XP box, couldn't get the winrsh to work, so I've turned up the interix version. I edited the inetd.conf, signalled inetd, but no rshd starts. In fact, there is no rshd in the filesystem.
I tried this on a completely different XP machine, and got the same results. Where's rshd?
I disabled the winrsh service, so that's not an issue.
Help?!?!??

The rshd daemon gets started by inetd when contact is made
to the correct socket. The filename for the binary is "/usr/sbin/in.rshd".
You won't see an "rshd" or "in.rshd" running until a connection is established.

Okay, that makes sense. But I'm still not making any progress; I put the unix hostname in the .rhosts file in '/', but doing an rsh from the unix host, it times out with 'permission denied'. I've made sure the rshd and rlogind are uncommented in the inetd.conf file, and I've bounced the inetd.
I'm root on the unix box, Administrator on the XP box. I enabled syslogd to see messages, but all they say is 'permission denied'.
I'm doing "rsh xphostname -l Administrator ls" .
Any tips, hints, or tricks? This just shouldn't be this difficult.

Your forgetting the fundamental of your Unix training young Skywalker...
Your user needs a real home directory. The default of "/" is used when
the home directory of the user is not set. "/" is not the proper spot.
You also need to have appropriate security on the home directory and the
".rhosts" file. Yes, especially for the user Administrator.
Take a read through the /Tools FAQ's for setting a home directory.
Read the other entries too. It can only help.
Remember that if your machine is part of a domain there are two users
named Administrator: domain and local. These are different accounts.
You may need to explicitly specify the domain/local in the username
or change the default setting in the registry.
