i mkserv remote a machine (7.0F vax), and reboot.

i can now telnet into the machine (good) but not rlogin.

if i try to rlogin, it asks for a password (why?  i have tickets and
it has an rcmd srvtab), says it's incorrect (it isn't), then prompts
me for username, passwd, and repeats, telling me my login is
incorrect.

if i telnet in (to get in the passwd file, though this requirtes me to
type my password in cleartext over the net), i can rlogin fine,
including the use of kerberos to get me in, and rkinit to get my
tickets there.  without the passwd entry, neither rkinit nor rlogin
works.

the machine i am coming from is also 7.0.
