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...

                                        Grzegorz

PS. More info on ssh you can find at:
