I just tried this.  Same configuration as in my other message, and I did:

	rlogin -KL8 garth

I had

	garth

in my ~/.rhosts file.  I changed that to "garth.kithrup.com" after the first
test.

On another screen, I had

	tcpdump -n port 53 and host garth

running.  (And I verified that, yes, it does indeed log DNS lookups.)

So, once again:  I don't know what to tell you.  I am unable to reproduce it
here.

Sean.
