Check Text (C-215347r987796_chk)

Determine if the "rlogind" service is running by running the following command: # grep -v "^#" /etc/inetd.conf |grep rlogin If the above grep command returned a line that contains "rlogin", this is a finding.

Fix Text (F-16543r294493_fix)

Disable the rlogind service by editing the "'etc/inetd.conf" file. # vi /etc/inetd.conf Comment out the "rlogind" service. Restart the inetd service: # refresh -s inetd
