daemon@TELECOM.MIT.EDU (Jennifer Steiner) Wed May 25 17:55:49 1988 To: kerberos@ATHENA.MIT.EDU Cc: don@ATHENA.MIT.EDU From: Jennifer Steiner <steiner@ATHENA.MIT.EDU> Beta testers, Below is an addendum to the "Kerberos Installation Notes" document. Jennifer ---------- The directory SRCDIR/appl/erlogin contains some code based on rlogin[d], modified by Don Davis of Project Athena to do the following: erlogin is a rewritten version of 4.3bsd rlogin(d). it causes the remote login session to share the invoker's DISPLAY environment-variable/value, and can readily be modified to pass other environment variables/values. it offers kerberos authentication, but can talk to hosts that don't support kerberos. it is intended to be backwards compatible with 4.2bsd rlogin.
