[OpenAFS-devel] How can I use rsh to connect with AFS

[Harald Barth]

There exist a bunch of forwarding mechanisms for tickets and tokens which all
have different problems, some have bad security, some have no security, some
depend on the IP addr some on the endianess of the computers involved, just to
mention some.

Not passing the tokens is better than passing them with some kind of
encryption over whatever channel.

As there nowadays exist krb5 enabled r* utilities which can be
configured to forward tickets and get tokens from that tickets, I 
suggest scrapping all odd ticket or token passing mechanisms,
including the r* stuff currently distributed with openafs.

OK, I like to paint things black and white.

Harald.
