With FTP, one uses GSSAPI.

With telnet/rlogin/rsh authentication is negotiated in such a way that it
is possible for the client to say "Hey, we want to give you a kerberos
ticket to authenticate ourselves."  The server replies with something like
"Sure, let me have it." or "Kerberos?", or "Yea, but only if you promise
to give me a Kerberos 5 ticket." or smething like that.
