    Summary: Clients for remote access commands (rsh, rlogin, rcp)
    Description: 
    The rsh package contains a set of programs which allow users to run
    commmands on remote machines, login to other machines and copy files
    between machines (rsh, rlogin and rcp).  All three of these commands
    use rhosts style authentication.  This package contains the clients
    needed for all of these services.
    
    The rsh package might be installed to enable remote access to some
    legacy network eqipment lacking encrypted access means (so make sure
    you have at least considered crypto approach like openssh implements).
    
    *** PLEASE NOTE ***
    
    Due to the binaries installed SUID root the access to those
    is limited to "netadmin" group by default; use control(8)
    when amending accordinging to the site policy.
