 Hi,
 
 Well, my (limited) experience of implementing the telnet protocol
 in a proprietary package is that you either write almost all of it,
 or none at all. From that point of view rlogin is cheaper and 
 easier. 
 
 Perhaps you could consider looking at OpenSSH as well, as that seems
 to be becoming widely accepted as an rlogin replacement. Besides 
 which Last time I checked the sources only unix-style systems were
 supported.
 
  Cheers, 
     Andy
