  This is 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.

  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.
