Hi I briefly noticed a discussion here a while ago regarding the security implications of setting up I-NET/STAR connections (UNIX-UNIX) whereby you have to set up an account on the remote machine with a .rhosts entry allowing access for the remote user. Is there any way of achieving remote access for the Database without having to grant login or other remote command access.
