[TriLUG] More rsh badness (rcp, actually)

[Richard Ryder]

Ian,

It's been awhile since I did network installs of irix boxes, and even 
then it was from another irix box...  I just remember that it connects 
to a tftp server.  I don't think you need to use rsh.

I found this link though.... Looks promising.  Hope this helps:
