Under X11R2, both the local rsh process and the remote rshd would go away after xterm was started. But under X11R3, this doesn't seem to work; the xterm runs fine, but rsh and rshd stay around. Does anyone know what changed? -- Joe Weening Computer Science Dept. weening@Gang-of-Four.Stanford.EDU Stanford University
