You should use ssh to log into the machines instead of regular telnet
-or rlogin. Our LDAP directory is able to share ssh RSA keys among machines,
-please see <URL:http://db.debian.org/doc-mail.html> Otherwise when you
-first login a ~/.ssh directory will be created with the appropriate
-permissions. Please be aware of the security implications of using RSA
-authentication and ssh agents.

-Finally, please take a minute to visit <URL:http://db.debian.org/>.
-Login using the password information appended to this email, and
-update your personal information. The information is used to maintain
-your accounts on various Debian machines, and also to allow other
-developers and general users to find out more about you. Many of
-the fields are only visible to other registered Debian developers. This
-is also the only way to change your password. The passwd program does not
-yet work.
