I'm not sure whether this is what you meant to say Koen. If a host is in the /etc/hosts.equiv file then ALL users from that host are trusted, including root. If you ONLY want root to be trusted, then remove that host from /etc/hosts.equiv and put it in the local file .rhosts. This file could be in any number of home directories for each trusted user. Just thought I'd clarify that. I still love the concept of two servers "thrusting" each other. ;^) Cheers, -- Mark. +-------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Mark D.
