TCP/IP RSH proxy configuration?

» close window

The Question is:

 
My question is about the RSH, we want to eliminate or  not include the
password of the remote user in the command line.
e.g. A::usera>rsh /user=userb /pass=test B "@testing.com"
 
is it possible to be like this - A::usera>rsh /user=userb B "@testing.com"
 
I already add the host name and IP address of host A to the host B. And I
also I add the (UCX) proxy for host A.
 
ucx>add proxy userb/host=A/remote=userb
 
ucx>show proxy - when i invoke this command
VMS User_name=userb
Type=cd
User_ID=usera
Group_ID=
Host_name=A

The Answer is :

 
  To enable proxies for use by RSH, the commands necessary are:
 
    $ TCPIP ! or UCX on TCP/IP Services prior to V5.0
    TCPIP> DISABLE SERVICE RSH
    TCPIP> SET SERVICE RSH /FLAG=(...)
    TCPIP> ENABLE SERVICE RSH
 
  Depending on the version of TCP/IP Services, the applicable flags
  can include CASE_INSENSITIVE, PROXY, and APPLICATION_PROXY.
