This is mainly a note in case I don't get around to fixing
these now, but a post to c.p.k showed three potential bugs in klogind.
* The unable to convert to krb4 tickets message is a bit confusing if
you don't realize what is going on. Perhaps rewording to a warning or
notice would be appropriate--to make it clear that it may not be an
error.
* The rlogin -a option (require password at remote end) doesn't work
and causes a core dump.
* If rlogin -f fails and you aren't encrypting, it's not clear to me
you want to execute UCB login in preference to a Kerberized rlogin
without tickets being forwarded.
