Hi Sachin,
Thanks for your response. But as mentioned in my initial email (mentioned below) I followed the same steps but on trying to rsh my RHAS 4.0 machine from my windows desktop I am prompted for password but after that nothing happens.
Please suggest how can I resolve this.
Thanks,
Rahul

Hello,
rexec, being a xinetd service will not start as usual "service name start".
All you need to do is type the following at the prompt:
chkconfig rexec on.
After this, type chkconfig | grep rexec and make sure that it is on.
Regds,
Sachin
PS: Also, you can edit /etc/xinetd.d/rexec and change the disable status.
