- Here's part of my list of things I do to "localize" a vanilla HP system
- mv /bin/rsh /bin/ressh
- ln /usr/bin/remsh /usr/bin/rsh
-
- BTW, I also do a mv /usr/lib/cron; rm cron.allow at.allow
- which one should *not* have to do IMHO! ;-)
-
- I've been doing this on HP-UX7.0-8.07 and HP{3,4,7}00's and we have never
- seen any ill effects. Unless you plan to use the Restricted Shell, this is
- probably the way to go IMHO. BTW, there's been discussion before on c.s.h
- about rsh/remsh "correctness"

- P.S. Anybody out there using file system swap on their HP700's w/HP-UX8.07?
- Even with the "VM patch" installed (PHKL_1065), there still seems to be
- some strangeness. I've enabled this on a few machines as a "safety net,"
- VUE (and our product) can be memory pigs at times. However, sometimes
- it seems that we encounter about 5 minutes of pure swapping, load factor
- of 20+, and a hyper-active disk (lots of squirrels in there eating nuts! :-)
- Things then seem to return to normal ?!?
