	I noticed that I couldn't telnet into snork without typing a
password, despite having forwardable tickets that were accepted by telnetd:

37 contents-vnder-pressvre:nathanw>telnet snork
...trying Athena's default telnet options: "-axf"
Trying 18.70.0.211...

	... but I can ssh in just fine without typing a password:

Athena Update (???) Version 0.0A Mon Jan 1 00:00:00 EDT 0000

	This seems to be because the telnet line in
/etc/athena/inetd.conf has "telnetd -a off" instead of "telnetd -a
cred", like all the other 8.2 platforms.
