Files for z/OS UNIX RSHD

The files used by z/OS® UNIX RSHD and their locations in the z/OS UNIX file system are as follows:

/etc/services
The ports for each application are defined here.
/etc/syslog.conf
The configuration parameters for usage of syslogd are defined in this file.
/etc/inetd.conf
The configuration parameters for all applications started by inetd are defined in this file.
/usr/sbin/orshd
The server.

If BPX.DAEMON is specified, the sticky bit must be set on, and /usr/sbin/orshd, and orshd can be in an authorized MVS™ data set.

/usr/sbin/ruserok
An optional user exit that will authenticate users logging into the z/OS UNIX RSHD server with a null password. See Setting up the z/OS UNIX RSHD installation exit for more information.
Note: This exit is required to allow support for null passwords with RSH.
/usr/lib/nls/msg/C/rshdmsg.cat
The message catalog associated with the z/OS UNIX RSHD client is stored here. If this file does not exist, by default, the software uses the messages hard-coded within the software. These messages duplicate the English message catalog that is shipped with the product.
Note: The message catalog is not actually stored here. This is a symbolic link, and the actual member is in /usr/lpp/tcpip/nls/msg/C/*.
