Rochlis) Newsgroups: comp.protocols.kerberos Subject: Re: Questions about ksu Message-ID: <9012161621.AA12824@delwin.MIT.EDU> Date: 16 Dec 90 16:21:17 GMT References: Sender: news@shelby.stanford.edu (USENET News System) Organization: Internet-USENET Gateway at Stanford University Lines: 10 It's a question of tradeoffs. If you think secure tty's are more of a security problem than typed passwords over the net then don't use them. Most people around here (I think) don't use ksu. They have aliases which switch to a separate ticket file, get root instance tickets with kinit, and rlogin to any servers they need to manage. -- Jon
