Bob The script file works on a machine without the -fh command, but not with it whether -fh points to the local or the remote machine. In both cases I get permission denied errors. There is clearly I something here I need to understand about Linux. ssh is installed in preference to rsh by Mandrake 8.0, but I get the same errors after giving the password. I installed rsh and reconfigured and compiled xboard, but get the same permission errors with this. And I have messed around with hosts.allow to no avail. Disappointing since I imagined this would work out the box - and have reinstalled just to confirm it does not. If it did with your distribution let me know which it is. I will give up until I learn some Linux, since blindly fiddling is not doing the trick. Hopefully it will turn out to be something embarassingly simple. Thsnks for the help. Frank
