An Athenized version of /bin/login for the RS/6000's is available for
testing.  

To set it up:

	- mv /bin/login to /bin/login.orig
	- cp /mit/lwvanels/work/login/login /bin/login

Note: the AIX /bin/login is a hard link to /etc/tsm and /etc/getty as well;
these programs should be left in place.

	- Uncomment the telnet line in /etc/inetd.conf.
	- inetimp; refresh -s inetd

Note that this is not a replacement for the console login (getty); the AIX
version of getty/tsm has features (secure attention keys, trusted path) that
havn't been ported yet.  Replacing these with the new version will currently
hang the console.

For now, bugs/comments to me.
