System name: paddington
Type and version: VAXSTAR 6.4R
Display type: SM
What were you trying to do?
Kerberos rlogin to another host using root instance
What's wrong:
Rlogin failed in a bizzar way, follows is transcript:
note: "meroot" is aliased to change the KRBTKFILE
environment variable. I use this all the time.
======================
paddington% (meroot;kinit hoffmann.root)
MIT Project Athena (paddington)
Kerberos Initialization for "hoffmann.root"
Password:
paddington% (meroot;rlogin athena -l root)
Hostname did not resolve to an address, so Kerberos authentication failed

Login incorrect
login: Connection closed.
====================
I had typed a number of ^D at the Password: prompt then hit a
<cr> and another ^D to close the connection.
What should have happened:
I should have been logged in as "root" to the remote host.
