There is a kerberize telnet available via anonymous ftp from ftp.uu.net.
It is in /networking/telnet.91.03.25.tar.Z.
We've been using it for several months now.
I like kerberized telnet over rlogin, because telnet can send over
environment variables, such as DISPLAY, EDITOR and PRINTER.
It negotiates speed and terminal type much more nicely than rlogin.
From what I can tell, rlogin is pretty unflexible.
I don't know of any kerberize ftp.
I don't know if the ftp protocol is flexible enough to allow such authentication.
But then, it's only software.
