(Jeff: I think you got dropped off this thread somewhere, basically I
asked if someone would need to enter a root password if they do a
ktelnet to a machine with -a off even if they are in the klogin)
>Sam is right. You do need to enter a root password for -a off.
That is not good, but dealable. We should think about a proper solution
for the summer (since among other things,this means that we cannot use
ktelnet to the dialups as root since they no longer have a human known
root password).
I am not sure what has been done, however after talking to Craig
sometime last week, I think the right answer is to change remote.add in
the mkserv locker to make the inetd.conf change.
We can then tell clients that ran mkserv remote and were not happy with
the results to re-run it, and the Private WS's that have not updated yet
will get it 'right' the first time.
