In article <DERAADT.91...@fsa.cpsc.ucalgary.ca> I write:

I thought that the original discussion was that login does not support the -h flag, and that a telnetd started with a $TERM set would result in login and telnetd providing telnetd's $TERM in the case when the correct $TERM could not be determined.

Whoops. Mess up. I mean -p. Ie., when telnetd starts login, it is not
to provide the -p flag, and the result is that login is supposed to
discard the previous environment and build an environment completely
anew.
Getty, on the other hand, does supply -p, because getty builds part of
the environment, and login is supposed to just suppliment it.
Oh well. I think I'm getting religous about a BSDism in a system V group.
I should run for cover.
