    This configuration is neither implemented nor supported by SUSE. I
    suggest you do it the "standard" way:

    SUSE 9.0:
    1. make sure the rsh-server package is installed
    2. run YaST2 -> Network Services (inetd)
       (a) Enable xinetd, (b) enable the shell and login service, i.e
       /usr/sbin/in.rlogind and /usr/sbin/in.rshd -aL servers

    SLES8.1:

    I don't have SLES8.1 and therefore I cannot check it. But it sounds
    strange.

    If it's true then you have to copy these /usr/sbin/in.rlogind and
    /usr/sbin/in.rshd servers manually and fix the corresponding (x)inetd
    configuration. I cannot help more since I don't know the details of
    SLES8.1.

    The point to remember is that rshd and rlogind servers are usually
    started by (x)inetd and therefore you have to configure and enable the
    (x)inetd too.
