: Another point - IBM security Policies REQUIRE that any system they look
:       after, their's or customer's, has rlogin=false for root set - this
:       means ssh will NOT be usable at any site for which IBM is responsible
:       - that means all IBM customers and IBM cannot use the product as it
:       is currently configured without mountains of paperwork.

Wouldn't it make more sense to respect the rlogin= setting only if
sshd_config has RhostsAuthentication (or potentially
RhostsRSAAuthentication) turned on?  Those are the only times when sshd
actually acts like rshd or rlogind.
