This is a followup to a suggestion from Jeff and Jerry for our remaining
timesharing systems.  In the orignal suggestion, we need to prompt for
a password when a user runs rlogin, so the remote timesharing machine can
get Kerberos tickets for use on that machine.

I propose that rlogin prompt for the password, and use the session key
to encrypt it to send to the remote login daemon, which can then get
tickets for the user.

Comments?
