Authenticated telnet works fine for me, although it does ask for a
password (sent encrypted) and fetches tickets now that I've added "-a
off" to the telnetd invocation. This is IS's current planned method
for dealing with having "telnet -ax" be the default and not having
ticket forwarding, and since I find it convenient, I thought it would
be a good idea to set it up on granola.
I don't know why it closes the connection for you rather than asking
for a password. I tried from a Decstation as well as another NetBSD
machine, and it works fine. I also tried on a Sparc 5. Maybe there's
a problem on your end?
Authenticated, unencrypted rlogin failed for me from glacier to
granola twice, but now all invocations of rlogin appear to work. It's
very difficult to debug this kind of problem, if indeed it's a problem
and not me being confused.
So I really don't know why you're having problems.
