[uw.unix] orchid rlogin restriction

dwtill@watyew.waterloo.edu (Dave Till) (09/19/89)

I'm curious:  why is there a restriction on how orchid is accessed
by means of the "rlogin" command?  I tried to log on to it today, and
got this:

	Remote access restricted to regular terminal ports.

Can anybody clear up why such a limitation is necessary?

Thanks.
