That helped. In summary, as pointed by Lothar, for proper operation of rexecd the hostname of the connecting host should be known to the server through any means like DNS lookup, /etc/hosts etc. On 8/15/06, Lothar Braun <mail@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote:

Ok. The problem is, that your rexecd doesn't know the hostname that belongs to your private address. And rexecd needs a hostname to operate properly. Add an dns-entry into the servers /etc/hosts for your private address, and everything should work fine. Best regards, Lothar
