[aus.wanted] Modified rlogin for use with X.29 interface.

craig@aries.cc.deakin.OZ (Craig Bishop) (07/07/89)

We have just recently installed X25 software which allows us to
set up x29 login sessions for our users. The problem is that if
they rlogin (or are rlogged into) another machine the rlogin
program set CBREAK mode and the x29 server places the connection
into native mode. This is expensive for the users because they
send and receive packets for every character typed.

Has anyone written any software to allow a more reasonable
approach to remote sessions from a x29 like interface.

P.S. Line-by-line mode in telnet is OK but every time you want
to do something which requires that CBREAK be set you have to
escape to telnet and change to character mode.
