This is not the problem (see -l option thats gives the username to rlogin).
I have posted before:

:I have tried to first login in a normal account via mgetty and than
execute
:the rlogin. Now I can see rlogin terminates with a Segmentation fault.

The problem is the Segmentation fault, not the username (the same with
telnet work!)

The script that Jack posted shows that it works on other systems. (I haved
tried before with the same options, it doesn't work for me) 

I have tried to get a new version of rlogin as Gert said, but still can't
find one. Does anybody know where to get rlogin for Linux.

Thanks Gerald
