Thank you for the patches for encrypted rsh.

For the most part, I used your code, as you submitted it, but I did
make a few changes:
	- Avoid requiring a second port.
	- Allow for the output of "rsh" to be interpreted by the server.
	  (There was a missing decryption step, and an additional pipe
	  had to be created in the krshd.)

There have been a lot of other changed in the appl/bsd directory to
support more operating systems (AIX, Linux, Ultrix, Solaris, and
expected to work on HP/UX, CRAY, IRIX, OSF, and many more).
Unfortunately, the appl/bsd changes make it look *VERY* different from
what had previously been released, thus making integration difficult at
the moment.

I have also incorporated your patch to mailquery regarding the missing
QUIT command, and will be looking at the popper submission sometime in
the near future.
