+        <p>Derek Martin (rssh maintainer) reports:</p>
+        <blockquote cite="http://www.pizzashack.org/rssh/security.shtml">;
+          <p>John Barber reported a problem where, if the system
+          administrator misconfigures rssh by providing too few access
+          bits in the configuration file, the user will be given
+          default permissions (scp) to the entire system, potentially
+          circumventing any configured chroot.  Fixing this required a
+          behavior change: in the past, using rssh without a config
+          file would give all users default access to use scp on an
+          unchrooted system.  In order to correct the reported bug,
+          this feature has been eliminated, and you must now have a
+          valid configuration file.  If no config file exists, all
+          users will be locked out.</p>
