I have updated the RLOGIN & RSH clients, and added servers for both RSH 
and RLOGIN (with .RHOSTS support).  No RCP yet -- that's a project for
another day...

The saveset, RLOGIN.BCK_Z, is available by anomalous FTP from 
toyvax.zl2tnm.gen.nz.  This is my home machine on a 28k link, so if 
folks could try to retrieve it in the window 0200-1800 NZDT (+1300), 
(ie when I'm at work or asleep) that would stop me getting angry... 8-)  

(Note that local time is shown when you connect to the FTP server.)


The RLOGIND supplied in this kit is much updated from the beta that has
been on my FTP server for a while, it now supports window size changes, 
access port assignment (hacked from GKN's ACCPORNAM program), and a few 
other bugfixes.  It also has some concept of terminal types.

The RSH Ctrl/T bug has been fixed (or at least worked around).  

RLOGIN now passes a sensible terminal type to the remote system (as opposed
to the previous version which just assumed that everyone used a VT100).
