[Please Cc: me with replies!] I know it must be an FAQ, but does there exist a secure replacement for rdist, one which would not require having a /root/.rhosts file? Those things make me understandably paranoid. I'm not quite sure what a secure replacement would look like though; would it perhaps use the SSH protocol with some more secure automatic authentication?
