Remove Rsh Trust Files The files '/etc/hosts.equiv' and '~/.rhosts' (in each user's home directory) list remote hosts and users that are trusted by the local system when using the rshd daemon. To remove these files, run the following command to delete them from any location: '$ sudo rm /etc/hosts.equiv' '$ rm ~/.rhosts' Trust files are convenient, but when used in conjunction with the R-services, they can allow unauthenticated access to a system. Fix: find -type f -name .rhosts -exec rm -f '' \; rm /etc/hosts.equiv oval:org.secpod.oval:def:30372 oval:org.secpod.oval:def:31095 SCAP Repo OVAL Definition 2015-11-13
