+From: "David J. MacKenzie" <djm@web.us.uu.net>
+Subject: [Notice] rdist environment limit exceeded
+To: bugs@linux-mandrake.com
+Date: Sat, 15 Apr 2000 15:49:01 -0400
+
+Package: rdist
+Version: 6.1.5-10
+
+I hit an arbitrary limit on the environment size in rdist.
+I used "rdist -P rsh" to get whichever rsh comes first in my PATH (the
+krb5 rsh, which is in different directories on different machines I use).
+My environment contains more than 40 variables, and PATH doesn't
+happen to be among the first 40.  Thus, rdist dies with:
+
+djm@dagger 35 $ rdist -P rsh -c /var/tmp/services catapult
+catapult: updating host catapult
+catapult: LOCAL ERROR: Unexpected input from server: "catapult: LOCAL ERROR: execlp rsh failed: No such file or directory.".
+catapult: updating of catapult finished
+
+because the PATH environment variable is not set any longer.
+
+Fix (also sent to the rdist-bugs mailing list):
