there is a bug in the FreeBSD 2.2.7 /usr/libexec/rshd. This problem
was discovered and solve right after 2.2.7 was released. It has been
rediscovered and resolved a few times since then.

you can search the problem report database (the "support" GNAT page
which is IMHO the obvious place to look, does not report closed PRs,
you need to go to the "search" GNAT page).

anyway you can visit:

	ftp://ftp.cs.ndsu.NoDak.edu/pub/freebsd/tmp/...

for a copy of the fix and the compiled rshd with and without kerberos
support.
