In order to stand on the shoulders of giants, don't keep kicking them in the ankles. SSH exists because of short-comings of other protocols. The default response from most people here is to recommend current best practice.

That said there are places where telnet is still required such as talking to configurable network devices, legacy systems or due to restrictive firewall rules.

Are you serious? Historically, where did rlogin originate?



Seems rlogin predates Linux 1.0 by at least 3 years, so I guess it originated with Unix.

Please do not inflame forums users with replies that contain phrases such as this.

These types of phrases, while sometimes commonplace elsewhere on the net, are a rule violation here at unix.com.
