Thanks to all for your help and quick response. Removing the kerberos
packages fixed the problem. Users could have modified their PATH to pick up
the regular rsh command, however, I think this was easier since we didn't
needed.

Thanks again!

Subject: [ale] Turn off Kerberos checking


Hi,

I am running a Red Hat 6.2 system and want to disable the kerberos checking
performed by rlogin and rsh. I found a configuration file /etc/krb5.conf. If
I rename the file, rsh and rlogin will not run. With the configuration file
in place, rsh and rlogin, give me the following before logging into the
remote system:

[coleman at techlinux coleman]$ rsh prince
prince.coleman.edu: Connection refused
Trying krb4 rlogin...
prince.coleman.edu: Connection refused
trying normal rlogin (/usr/bin/rlogin)
Password:

The connection refused messages are throwing off my students. They are
assuming the command failed but it didn't.

Thanks,
