I am looking to set up a remote dump between three freebsd machines. I had two setup to remote dump to a sparc2 previously, but i'm selling the sparc as it was too hard to make secure. What needs to be enabled to allow the root login shell? I've added the host to /etc/hosts.equiv and added it to login.access. It still seems to deny access. perhaps a change /etc/ttys is required? As i look into this more it seems like an increased security risk. Is there another way of doing it? I have one 8mm exabyte tape drive and would like to backup three freebsd boxes without totally leaving the network wide open. I've got sshd and tcp_wrappers installed and working also. Perhaps the best solution would be to have each machine have it own backup...
