By default, ssh is not installed setuid root. Currently, you need to
install it setuid root or it disables rhosts auth.
Of course, rhosts auth is a terrible idea. Are you _sure_ you mean rhosts
auth, or do you mean RSARhosts/Hostbasedauth? These currently _also_
require that ssh be setuid root, but have far more security.
