Vulnerability discussion

The remshd process provides a typically unencrypted, host-authenticated remote access service. SSH should be used in place of this service.

Check content

# cat /etc/inetd.conf | grep -v "^#" | grep -c remshd If the above command return value is greater than 0, this is a finding.

Fix text

Edit /etc/inetd.conf and comment out the remshd service. Refresh the inetd service. # inetd -c

Pro Tips

Lavender hyperlinks in small type off to the right (of CSS class id, if you view the page source) point to globally unique URIs for each document and item. Copy the link location and paste anywhere you need to talk unambiguously about these things.

You can obtain data about documents and items in other formats. Simply provide an HTTP header Accept: text/turtle or Accept: application/rdf+xml.
