decmips 7.2B: xlogin: barton access

From: John T Kohl <jtkohl@ATHENA.MIT.EDU>
To: testers@ATHENA.MIT.EDU

System name:		quicksilver
Type and version:	KN01 7.2B
Display type:		PM-MONO

What were you trying to do?
	Use barton from the "other options" xlogin menu

What's wrong:
	1) the font is fixed, not a "nice, large, user-friendly font"
	2) barton was busy, and put up this message for about 1/2
second:

Trying...
Connected to BARTON-ACCESS.MIT.EDU.
Escape character is '^]'.
telnetd: All network ports in use.
Connection closed by foreign host.

What should have happened:
	1) the font should be bigger
	2) there needs to be some sleep time after it exits so the user
knows it's too busy.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	xlogin(8) [wow!  the right man page!]
