Solaris rlogin

Since sorting my Sun SPARC box out, I've been turning cr*p like rlogin and telnet off forcing all logins through SSH. Yesterday I ran rlogin to connect and it worked. Today I figured out why. I don't actually even have a rlogin client installed on my desktop systems, but Debian had thoughtfully linked /usr/bin/rlogin to /usr/bin/ssh (via stuff), so I was actually connecting to the Sun box via SSH after all.
