This isn't something we generally do to a branch. :: :: I can back it out if need be. : :Please do. : :Warner I think we can afford to turn off rsh/rlogind/telnet by default in 4.x, since we have openssh pre-installed. I do not think we can turn off these babies by default in 2.2.x, because we don't, but also because these sorts of changes effect only new installs and since most people still using 2.2.x are in maintainance mode, not new-install mode, these changes are not going to have any effect whatsoever so there is not much point in making them. What I would like to see in 4.x is *EVERYTHING* turned off by default: ftp, telnet, comsat, ntalk, smtp... the works. In fact I would turn off inetd itself by default. The only thing going into 2.2.x should be bug fixes. We definitely should not be making install policy changes in 2.2.x. -Matt To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
