You wonder why they even include the Berkeley 'r' commands any more. If
you are on an isolated network that is fully trusted, they're OK, (and
exceptionally convenient), but they are _so_ easy to abuse.

I hear you, I liked rlogin on just my node on my accounts (browser,
usenet, email...) .

Mandriva went and requires Kerberos for r*'s use a year or so ago.
Guess I'll have to take it out of the post install commands.
