(Actually, this is either a problem wish rsh on the RT, or with
rshd/kshd on the pmax.)
What were you trying to do?
Use "rsh news -l root" to start up a remote shell on the news
server, and then use ~^Z to suspend the rlogin.
What's wrong:
~^Z does not function properly, as it does when "rlogin news
-l root" is used.
What should have happened:
Either "rsh news -l root" should work just as "rlogin news -l
root" does, or rsh should not support the ability to start up
an interactive shell (i.e. specifying no command for rsh to
run should be an error).
