After a recent update to sid, incoming rlogin and rsh connections ignore /etc/hosts.equiv (and ~/.rhosts) and ask for a password or fail with "permission denied". The rsh-server (and -client) packages were not updated, but libpam-modules, libpam-runtime and libpam0g were upgraded to 0.99.7.1-4. I'm not sure one of them is the culprit (and see no new bugs filed for them), but pam is involved in the authentication process.
