The recent note about hiding from finger reminded me of a problem with rlogin on some systems (not SunOS 4 or Solaris 2 it seems). When the -l -froot flaw was noticed I quickly realised that whilst few systems suffered from -froot, more suffered from -hhostname (including OSF/1 V3.0, Concentrix 3.0.00). On such systems an 'rlogin machine -l -hhostname' will write 'hostname' to the last log information rather than your real hostname. This shouldn't pose problems to those using the tcp wrappers though (I prefer these to wtmp any way as the fields in wtmp are just too short). James
