I'm on Linux, with, I believe, Fvwm2 2.0.45/46, and I can't get the most
basic UNIX networking applet to run:
I start X, start an xterm inside Fvwm2 and then execute manualy:
rsh -l maxwell toronto "/usr/bin/X11/xterm -display maxwax:0.0"
When run on system 'maxwax' It should:
execute rsh,
rsh connects to toronto as user maxwell
run /usr/bin/X1/xterm on toronto
display a new xterm window on system maxwax's display.
This works fine, but when I attempt to place the same command within my
.fvwm2rc file, it hangs when I execute it.
Switching to another virtual console and performing a 'ps' shows two rsh
processes sitting there. Killing them doesn't do anything, I have to kill
X or ALT-backspace to shut X down and restart.
What am I missing here? I'm performing the same function on my SCO OS504
system at work with it's rcmd instead of 'rsh'--basically the same
thing--without any problems.
ANY suggestions greatly appreciated!
