'Lo all. I don't run any of the r* (rshd, rlogind, rexecd) servers on my machines. I do run sshd, however, and I'd like to use rdump to backup a filesystem to another server. Does anyone know of a way to get the rcmd() call in rdump to use ssh as its connection mechanism so authentication happens, without having to hack up libc? I fear the only way out of this is to hack rdump and replace the call to rcmd() with code that executes ssh(1) instead to both authenticate and issue the rmt command. However, I figured I'd see if a more elegant kludge exists first. Cheers, -- ( -Wes Santee <wes@bogon.net> Homepageless - and proud ) ( PGP: email w/Subject: "Send PGP Key" Powered by FreeBSD )
