HDR connectivity not using .rhosts
Roy Mercer asked for HDR connectivity options when .rhosts and hosts.equiv are not allowed (RedHat, IDS 11.10 and 11.50). Nilesh Ozarkar suggested the hosts.equiv file in the Informix etc directory to enable a trusted network. Fernando Nunes asked why that was not an option. David remarked that Kerberos would be the real answer but server-to-server authentication was not yet working.

What are other methods to allow for HDR connectivity if .rhosts and host.equiv are not an option? RedHat 4/5 IDS 11.10 and IDS 11.50 Looking at the admin guide the only other option I see is .netrc. Thanks Roy
If /etc/hosts.equiv is not an option, then you might want to use the $INFORMIXDIR/etc/hosts.equiv to enable trusted network for HDR connectivity.

The answer was already given to you. But for clarity, can you explain why is it not an option? Thanks and regards.

Well the real answer is kerberos but as John L said he has not got server-server authentication working yet. So Johnathan when is this coming? David.
