Re: How to call rsh from Applet to remote host

Hi Martin,

rsh is now deprecated.

Its still part of some (Fedora for one) Linux distros but its widely regarded as insecure and its use isn't recommended. Given that ssh can do everything rsh can do and will do it securely, there isn't any reason to use rsh.

rsync? Thats a superstructure application and can work over ssh or rsh transport layers.
