Ouch. My current system doesn't have remsh; I'm moderately sure our other systems don't either.

Did you upgrade from 2.6.4 without re-running configure? (If you | used the config.h file from a 2.6.4 build, you'd not see the fix.) Or | does your system now have a remsh binary installed in the path? I think I misreported the version; 2.6.4 was doing the "host -l user" thing, not 2.6.5. So I was seeing a change from 2.6.3 to 2.6.4, not from 2.6.4 to 2.6.5. I'll probably build and deploy 2.6.5 today anyway because I've got a file transfer that hangs and need to see if it happens with 2.6.5 at both ends (one system has an oldish Solaris ssh on it too; should I suspect it in my hang problem)? BTW, I always build from a fresh tree; I never reuse configs. I do log previous builds and consult them for weird setups; however I have found rsync well behaved and the only setting I tell configure is the prefix.
