One thing you can try, which we've done using ssh V1.2.26, is make Rdist use
secure shell as default instead of rsh. Here's how
in the Rdist source directory, cd into config. Edit the OS.h file specific
to your platform, eg for HPUX 10.20 you'd edit os-hpux10.h .
Change the #define statement for the remote shell to point to ssh, ie
>From :
#define _PATH_REMSH "/usr/bin/remsh"
To :
#define _PATH_REMSH "/usr/local/bin/ssh"
Compile the code and you should be away. We've done this on Solaris, HPUX &
AIX.
Hope this helps.
