:One could say the same about the "r" commands, telnet, and ftp. For :telnet and ftp: Extremely controversial. For the "r" commands, I'd :rate the issue as half way between controversial and extremely :controversial. What do you think? : :Regards, Phone: (250)387-8437 :Cy Schubert Fax: (250)387-5766 Yes, I agree. 'telnet' and 'ftp' would be extremely controversial (I'd like to keep them myself). The various 'r' commands rlogin, rsh, etc are in the middle. I'll separate the daemons from the clients. I think the daemons, e.g. 'telnetd', 'rshd', 'rexecd', 'rlogind' are in the middle, possibly even slightly less controversial then the client commands 'rlogin', 'rsh'. I think it may be possible to come to agreement to moving the daemons to ports. -- Scary moment of the day: At a meeting with a potential client I was standing in front of the white board an explained that we were using 'ssh' to create secure client-server links. I got blank stares. I paused, then asked to the room in general 'does *anyway* here know what 'ssh' is?'. More blank stares. This was a company doing secure VPNs. Very Scary. -Matt To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-arch" in the body of the message
