We solved our own problem, I think. I detailed a problem with
an install of JAVA131 using "setld" where the error was:
> Could not remotely run setld -C on [our-other-node] for JAVA131 JAVADOC131
> JAVADEV131
and said we suspected rsh. That seems to be the problem. Evidently
"setld" uses "rsh" in the cluster environment to do things on the
other node. There is a .rhosts file in / that contains both members:
alpha-s11# more .rhosts
[my-cluster-alias]
mynode1-ics0
member1-icstcp0
mynode2-ics0
member2-icstcp0
As part of our standard security procedure we remove everything from
inetd.conf except telnet and ftp, and we comment those out. Once we
added back in "rsh" to inetd.conf on both nodes installs worked. Now
we must just try to make rsh more secure.
sigh...
