Beta testers,
Below is an addendum to the "Kerberos Installation Notes"
document.

----------
The directory SRCDIR/appl/erlogin contains some code
based on rlogin[d], modified by Don Davis of Project
Athena to do the following:
erlogin is a rewritten version of 4.3bsd rlogin(d). it causes the remote
login session to share the invoker's DISPLAY environment-variable/value,
and can readily be modified to pass other environment variables/values.
it offers kerberos authentication, but can talk to hosts that don't support
kerberos. it is intended to be backwards compatible with 4.2bsd rlogin.
