RE: -930 Cannot connect to remote host sitename.

I suppose you are trying to use replication?? you need permissions in the /.rhosts and in /etc/hosts.equiv files in both machines to run any command with rsh or to use the replication. So, in HP-UX files, you must put two lines like: hp-ux-address.com + (own machine) linux.address.co.uk + (remote machine) (allows to access from Linux to HP machine) (or its alias: my_linux_machine) (or its ip address if it is not in the DNS) and in your Linux machine, like linux.address.co.uk + (own machine) hp-ux-address.com + (remote machine) (allows to access from HP to Linux machine) (or whatever that was its address) Be careful with the symbol +, it will allow at anybody from any machine to use the other as anybody without autentification (any_user-any_user). So you can put only the name without the + symbol, to allow only user-user connections Don't forget put the alias if you use the alias instead the hole address in the sqlhosts file. If you need more details, let me know, but I think that is documented in the Administration guide.
