-This is derived from version 6.1 of Rdist from USC. It is based on
-rdist from 4.3BSD (classic). It includes all fixes for all bugs known
-to the CSRG Berkeley folks. It has been running at USC and numerous
-other sites for some time now on a wide variety of platforms.
-
-This version of rdist is not directly compatible with rdist
-distributed with 4.3BSD and subsequent vendor releases, but does
-indirectly provide full backward compatibility. See COMPATIBILITY
-below for details.
-
-This version of rdist does not need to be setuid "root" at all. Rdist
-now uses the rsh(1c) [remote command] program to make connections to
-remote hosts, instead of making the connection directly. This
-eliminates the need to be run as "root". Many thanks to Chris
-Siebenmann <cks@utcc.utoronto.ca> and John DiMarco
-<jdd@cdf.toronto.edu> who came up with an rsh version of rcmd() that
-makes this possible.
