Description Pavel Raiskup 2013-05-30 13:23:37 UTC
Tar currently searches for /usr/bin/rsh for remote backups by default.  This
may be changed by --rsh-command=/usr/bin/ssh option but it is less practical
these days.

It would be nice to replace that default with /usr/bin/ssh which is (1) easy to
configure and (2) sshd runs on most servers (unlike rsh server), obviously for
security reasons.
