Microsoft® Windows® Services for UNIX 3.5 has nothing to do with the TCP/IP Remote Utilities. Nothing. Compeletely different animals for entirely different purposes. The former has to operate as the *nix tools do, in order that it can iteroperate with them. The clue is in the title.

The rsh that comes with OS uses the same NT Auth mechanism used by the OS itself. That is, you have to be authorised at the domain, subject to all the same controls, restrictions and ACLs as if you were stting at the machine itself. Identical.

It's a network hygiene thing;

Live dangerously if you like, just be careful cavalierly advising others to do the same without letting them know there's risks involved. That's all.

None of this applies....... to the native rsh utility. None. Not one iota. Zip. Nadda.

When you know what you are talking about (win32!!!!!!!), then give me lectures on the subject.

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.
"Too many [] have been sedated by an oppressive environment of political correctness and risk aversion."
