I'm a Cygwin newbie; spent the last 15 years in the tender clutches

place to start when it comes to using things I was familiar with on
hp-ux; rlogin, remsh, ftp, etc. Can anybody give me some general
background on these subjects in Cygwin?
I'm not aware of an "remsh" for Cygwin (and neither is
http://cygwin.com/packages/), but the same says that "rsh" (which you
still shouldn't use if you can avoid it) lives in the 'inetutils'
package. Oddly enough, that seems to also be the package where the
vanilla 'ftp' lives.
remsh on hp-ux == rsh on other unixes, so your advice still holds.
hp-ux has a different rsh (restricted shell), so they named the remote shell
remsh.
Ok, I kind-of thought that was the case. At any rate, it is still
insecure, and ssh is recommended.
