     Hi,  I'm running FreeBSD R2.0.5(on a DEC PC with 486DX2)
 and R2.1.0(Pentium with Intel MB.)   Both are really stable
 and they are the most comfortable programming environment for
 me now.

    However, I have a few problems with "rlogin" and "rsh". 
 
        1. I can not rlogin from machine1 to machine2 nor
           from machine2 to machine1.  rlogin claims that
           "invalid user."  
    
             * I'm not running NIS nor NFS.

             * I have same account on both machines, but
               their user ID are different.  

             * There is no problem with telnet nor ftp.

             * I think my '.rhost' or '/etc/hosts.equiv'
                has no problem.

       2.  'rcp foo.txt machine2:~/' on machine1 succeeds, but
           'rcp foo.txt machine1:~/' on machine2 fails.
	   stty claims that 'TIOCGETD: Operation not supported.'

             * 'stty -e' gives same result on both machines.

    Could someone please tell me what causes problem?
 I also appreciate the pointers to related manuals, documents,
 RFCs and books.  Sorry for my poor English.

 Thanks.
