There is no good reason for rcp not to use rsh -x and there
are several good reasons for it to do so. In particular, the current
implementation requires the user to have tickets on both sides of the
connection. I will investigate using a protocol compatible with rsh
-x, and if it looks fairly easy, implement the change. I will retain
server support for the old method at the current time, although I
think we should consider it depricated.
Also, since I haven't heard any objections to removing the TGS
enctypes check on the cccache code, I wil go ahead and do so. This
means that if a specific enctype is not request, any ticket of any
enctype found in the ccache will satisfy the request.
