Hmmmm,

Now, I'm not too sure what people use SecureMode for, but it doesn't
make sense to expect one host to accept remote logging from other
hosts that don't, at least in my book...

I would tend to say `document that you cant do remote logging with "-s"'
and leave it at that, but I may be overlooking something here...

Comments ?
