Once again to everyone on the list.
Summary
-------
Almost everyone had me check if the rlogin daemon was running. It
was, everyone else could access it except from the one system.
John Vogtle response seemed to be the solution. I'd love to have the
real reason...
I don't have a *true* solution but I've seen this as well. It's seems
to be caused by the rlogin patch. If you run snoop between the two
machines that you're rlog'ing into, you should see that the two
machines are communicating just fine - you'll see you're input being
sent to the remote host and replies generated and sent back. The
local host simple doesn't *DISPLAY* the results.
I removed the rlogin patch on the host making the connection and
rlogin started working again.
