System name:		the-other-woman
Type and version:	SPARC/Classic 7.6P (1 update(s) to same version)
Display type:		cgthree

What were you trying to do?
	encrypted rlogin to a DECStation and start emacs.
	(well first I tried to run sendbug, but this is the 
	simplified case :-)

	Note that this happens regardless of whether my homedir is
attached on the DECStation, and that display was set to the default
(none) when I logged into the DECStation.  Note also that this did NOT
occur if I did not do an encrypted rlogin nor with the beta version of
rlogin I got from probe, so it may be a moot point.

What's wrong:
	it immediately closed my connection.

What should have happened:
	I was kind of hoping it waould start up emacs in the current window.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	Here's the info on one of the DECStations that exhibited this
	behavior.  (The other was paris)
