However, since I'm aware that I'm not > an expert in this area, I'll leave the PR open for a second opinion. I'll give it a shot. :-) AFAIK, rshd doesn't even alloc a tty: bash-2.03$ rsh localhost "tty" not a tty bash-2.03$ rlogin would probably be a different story, and I imagine (since it proports using login(1)) that it does what it should. I am however also not an expert in this area... -Paul. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
