Subject: bug#56518: Drop rsh/rlogin/remsh from Ange FTP
Date: Tue, 12 Jul 2022 09:55:12 -0500
Severity: wishlist

Assuming that Ange FTP is still relevant these days, its documentation
should not be talking about using "rsh", "rlogin" and "remsh" (as they
are obsolete).  Please rewrite its documentation to talk about SSH
instead.

(I note that Firefox and Chrome dropped FTP support in 2021.
And the FSF has sunset their FTP servers.)
