    I have created a user in AIX machine,and we got several AIX servers in our setup.i feel i dont wanna give passwd while login using rlogin.

    The same user have been created in other machines.

    but when i try to take rlogin it is asking for password.

    Could any one helpme out on this?

    Thanks & Regards

    hostname username

    I think you need to have a proper host entries in /etc/hosts for this setup to work.

    But I would strongly recommend to try out OpenSSH, which can do passwordless login in a much secure manner.
