This was a bug (more like a typo). This was discussed on the
freebsd-hackers and freebsd-questions lists...you can get a patch
if you go through the mailing list archives at www.freebsd.org and
look for messages entitled:
Kerberized/encrypted rlogins - 2.1.5 incompatible with everything else?
I *believe* it's been fixed in 2.1.6 and later releases.
Bruce.
