Yep, I did! I am using net tools, slackware 3.0, pppd2.2d and kernel 1.3.49.
Telnet, finger, ftp is fine, but when I try to use rlogin frommy home PC
via modem and ppp to a SUN Sparc10 connected directly to to the internet,
it asks for a password, I type but then nothing happens! The connection
freezes. When I try rlogin from the Sparc to my home PC everything is OK!!!
If somebody can help, I will be grateful.
