Hi.  
> What I'm trying to do is this:
> 
> I have a script which is owned by a 'normal' user except that the user is
> a member of the dba group. This script in turn calls another script, owned
> by oracle with the sticky bit set for the group. From this second script I
> want to RSH to another host as the oracle user without supplying a
> password. 
> 
> However, if I don't use the -l <user> switch, RSH logs on as the 'normal'
> user, if I do use the -l <user> switch I get asked for a password. I have
> entries in the .rhosts file for the oracle user, but still get prompted
> for a password.

> I realise this is not a secure solution, but I don't mind for the purposes
> of this. Do you know how I can do this?
