you could do this in almost any linux distro by adding a /etc/hosts.equiv or .rhosts file with appropriate entries I am not sure what MDK is using, maybe some PAM roundabouts. I think it is a good thing . Sometimes we use linux in embedded , or firewalled situations where people are not so paranoid about security ; in those cases such a nift feature, especially for home users is might convenient.
Thanks for pointing this out, Arko. maybe some other mdk users will use this ! -- shourya > -----Original Message----- > From: Arko Provo Mukherjee [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Saturday, June 07, 2003 7:25 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [ilug-cal] Mdk 9.1 > > > > Hi, > I installed Mdk 9.1 and found out a nice feature which was absent > before.
