    From Ib Joe@1:103/705 to All on Sat Jun 23 20:15:59 2018
    I am trying to set things up with SBBS, on a pi, and I want to rlogin to a door server... What I have been reading seems quite cryptic ... I want to rlogin to a standard port, It's 512 I think, I want to pass the alias as the login name and a predefined password.

    I'm going to do some more reading... this cannot be hard.

    Thanx

    Hi there, I seem to have the rlogin kind of solved... I can call and connect... Problem is that it's using the real name and not the alias. How do I fix this??

    Normally, you perform outbound rlogin connections using exec/rlogin.js. The first argument is the hostname/address to rlogin to. Normally, the 2 parameters are the user's name and alias. You can reverse them with the "TG_RLOGINSWAP" option if needed. There's actually no "password" part of a standard RLogin negotiation/connection sequence.

    You can pass the TG_RLOGINSWAP option on the ?rlogin command-line (following the address to connect to).
