Bug is also present in beta-7.
>Description:
(The category may be wrong, this may really be a krb5-libs bug)
rsh reports "connection refused" but then returns an "Unknown code
____ 255". I don't think that "Unknown code" should ever be returned
if it can be helped. In this case, "connection refused" is such a
common error that Unknown should not be reported...
>How-To-Repeat:
rsh to something not running and rshd:
[all-purpose-gunk!jhawk] ~> rsh fmr ls
frobozz-magic-robot-a4-0-1.bbnplanet.com: Connection refused
rsh: kcmd to host fmr failed - Unknown code ____ 255
trying normal rsh (/usr/ucb/rsh)
^C
