Thanks!!
As it turns out, I needed to compile telnetd with -DNO_LOGIN_F and with
-DLOGIN_R, which I determined by looking at what sys_term.c is trying to
do. I also discovered, only from looking at the code and comments there,
that the target user's .rhosts file must have a 'localhost' entry (because
telnetd simulates a locally-initiated rlogind when the -f option of login
isn't available).
(My login does know about -p, so that's no problem).
Thanks again, Bruce, for pointing me in the right direction.
