Re: rlogind and rexecd go away? [CVS: cvs.openbsd.org: src]

  ln -s ssh /usr/bin/rsh

For the last 10 years, dumps I've done have either used
kerberized rsh or ssh or a physically separate "pocket network"
(eg. 12 hosts wired on a spare NIC to the machine with the jukebox
because the dumps were killing the main network).
A neat way to steal data from secure machines is just to sniff
the dumps going across the network.

rsh is bad, mm'kay?
