It appears you can easily install rsh-client without rsh-server. As for rwho without rwhod, rwho depends on rwhod. If rwho doesn't actually need rwhod, file a bug report on rwho. You don't actually need netstd installed at all (any packages that depend on it and not whichever components are needed are broken and should be fixed soon). > > The ones you need are the ones you use.

BTW, when installing ssh (from potato at least) it detects if you have rsh-server &| non-ssl telnetd installed and advises you that they are insecure. -- finger for GPG public key. 29 Nov 1999 - new email address added to gpg key
