I know those R daemons have been way out of day, but the problem is we are 
still using it.

We use PC X server software to connect to solaris 9/10, and there is no log 
for rexec.

Just want to find out how to log rexec connection.

Thanks.

Enable tcp-wrappers to log the connections, but it will not show you the rexec 
commands, just the ip address where they come from.
To log the commands you might need a customized version of the rexec daemon, you 
could start with GNU rexecd, part of GNU inetutils, the source code is only 9k.

X11 sonnections also work fine when being tunneled using SSH...

Thanks for the help.

I could change setting on /etc/default/inetd to enable tcp-wrapper, and for 
customized rexcec daemon, you mean to use "-t" for starting inetd?
Are all the rexec logs going to /var/adm/messages ?
