rsh problem


I set up inetd in a Windows 2000 machine to enable rsh.  Whoever, no 
matter what I do, I get "Permission denied" error.

$ /usr/bin/rsh -l {id} {hostname} XXXX
{hostname}: Permission denied.



I wish I were an UNIX admin but I am not.  What am I doing wrong?  
Following is what I did:

Added environment variable in control panel
  CYGWIN=tty notitle glob
Added c:\cygwin\bin to PATH in control panel
Ran "iu-config".
/usr/sbin/inetd --remove-as-service
/usr/sbin/inetd --install-as-service
Added "{local-IP-address}  {id}" to /etc/hosts and ~/.rhosts
net start inetd


Puuuhhhhllllleeeeessss help  X-(
