Hi,

1. Instead of using xrsh you can use ssh, it makes automatically any
   authentication required by xdm. Usage is very simple:

        ssh -l user host xapplication &

2. Ssh provides more security and authentication not only in X sessions,
   but also in usual activity, like rsh or rcp

3. The side effect of using ssh is that even when you use it w/o command
   (so in rlogin manner) it omits the limit for number of users, which
   appeared at leats in v3.2. Probably it's illegal, but it works...
