Oh - same goes for "rshd", "rlogind" of course. The more listening ports we can kill (or de-priv) in the default install, the better... Also, the more we encourage ssh usage over unencrypted protocols, the better... I happily notice that RH7.1 beta1 does not have any of telnet, rsh, rlogin listening. It just has SSH, a worthy replacement :) Is this intentional and going to remain for RH7.1 final? If so, we can close this bug as fixed. Yup, it's intentional. |
