An explanation for this is that rlogin/rsh use port 513 while rexec works o=
n=20
port 512. It is therefore possible, that rsh/rlogin and rexec work with=20
different configurations.

I suppose that your inet-deamon listens on all interfaces for rlogin/rsh, b=
ut=20
only on your public 100Mbit interface for rexec.=20
You can check this via

netstat -tulpen | grep ":512"

This will give you the address range from which your rexecd will accept=20
connections from. If this doesn't match 0.0.0.0:* then you'll have to check=
=20
your rexecds configuration.

Best regards,
Lothar
