We use nrdist (v. 6.1.3) to do a kerberized (kerberosIV) rdist. You
can use "ksrvtgt" to get a short-lived ticket at the start of the
session.

For reference, rdist-7.1.0 actually uses rsh underneath, so it is
trivial to use it with kerberos rsh. I don't know what "sup" uses
(though I've heard rumors of a kerberized version) and it pulls rather
than pushes, but that's what the NetBSD developers use (and the Mach
developers as well, or at least they used to.)
The hard part is the higher level "figure out how to synchronize", the
transport is easy, in comparsion...

I'm in need of some code that will do an authenticated and optionally
encrypted push of data from one machine to another. I don't care if it is
rdist based (well, I'd prefer it not to be, given the race conditions in
classic rdist) but that's basicly the functionality I need.
The idea here is that I need to mirror a bunch of secondary servers off of
a primary server across known evil networks.
