Has anyone noticed that if you rlogin to another machine on your
network, the masscomp claims that you are idle, even though you are
not.  This is very bad for timeout daemons because they assume that
the access time of the tty changes if you are not idle.  So, you get
logged out by the daemon.

I suspect it's because rlogin uses raw mode.  Has anyone else
experienced this?  Does Masscomp know about this?  Anyway, if anyone
knows of a fix for this I'd appreciate them telling me.
