Hi!

No solution, but I am seeing the same problem here.
I am using Gridengine to submit jobs in a cluster, it sometimes fails
because it canīt make a rsh connection. Also a "manual" rsh or rlogin
connection like you describe show the same symptoms.
No problem with Suse 9.0, 9.1 and SLES 9.

Any tips would be useful.

regards
Daniel
