Re: [bug-inetutils] On r-commands and iruserok.

[Mats Erik Andersson]

Dear all,

updating myself on this matter.  I have a patch set which presently

  1) Falls back to ruserok/inet_ntoa if iruserok is not present.

  2) Checks for __check_rhosts_file and make dependencies on it visible.
     They were implicit until no, but this variable is not universally
     present, so it must be detected.

At the moment I am struggling to get the format string right for rlogind
when it calls login(1) on Solaris. The available string is outdated, but
is is hard to get it right. On Solaris rshd functions properly, but rlogind
produces an immediate logout until I can find the correct string.

Regards,
  Mats
