You know, rsh is actually considered bad practice for security reasons. Granted, the first thing I do is setup my .rhosts file so that I can use it;-) But I have been on sites that will not allow it.

I have been using the run_cmd code posted on the askTom site to run Unix commands from stored procedures. It works fine. However I am now trying to run a rsh command and always get 'permission denied' errors from the rsh commmand.

The rsh command works fine when I run it from the command line(as oracle), or from a C external procedure, but not from RUN_CMD.

Do I need to do something extra in java to enable running of rsh command?
