So, it occured to me that ssh is going to behave in a somewhat
non-intuitive fashion in 8.2. Namely is won't be affected by
access_on and access_off (since it is run stand alone and not out of
inetd.) The main effect here is that on a public ws access_on won't
turn on ssh. However this means that on a machine that is normally
run as access_on, but not mkserv remote, access_off won't turn it off.
I understand that there are some significant efficiency issues about
key generation when running it out of inetd rather than stand alone,
so that may not be a great idea. Thoughts?
