* Add ssh(1), sshd(8) and hosts_access(5) to SEE ALSO list.
(What would one look at for Kerberos?) * Be a bit more explicit about the security implications of rsh & friends, as suggested by Steven M. Bellovin and OK'd by Christos Zoulas

.Sh BUGS
The authentication procedure used here assumes the integrity
-of each client machine and the connecting medium.
+of every machine and every network that can reach the rshd/rlogind
+ports on the server.
This is insecure, but is useful in an ``open'' environment.
+Sshd or a Kerberized version of this server are much more secure.

A facility to allow all data exchanges to be encrypted should be
present.
