I have read some articles about using initd, but fedora 7 uses xinetd, which I am not familiar with. Not much different, you just need to make sure the rsh-server rpm is installed and edit the /etc/xinetd.d/rshd script (or whatever it happens to be named) to say "disabled=no" instead of the default "disabled=yes". Something like: yum install rsh-server chkconfig --level 2345 xinetd on (edit /etc/xinetd.d/rshd here using your favorite editor) /etc/init.d/xinetd restart should get things running. That, and you'll also have to wade through the 10,477 mails you'll get telling you never to run rshd because it is insecure :-).
