RE: RMTCMD's security?

Rob,

Nope. Are you blind?

I'm just amazed at responses seemingly disregarding host system security.

I just want to make sure I understand what is being said before I call B***t.

Scott,

By "to" machine do you mean the target system or the host system?

You should always secure the "to" machine. Securing the "from" machine
isn't even worthy of being called "security".
