Well - I just scanned my records..
I originally reported this problem in version 2.1.5 of FreeBSD, on
Aug. 16th, 1996. The subject of that message was
"Nameserver and 'rlogin' in 2.1.5."
it should be in the freebsd-hackers mail archives. But, at that time
I thought it was a totally different problem and let it languish.
Since it didn't get resolved; particularly when my network situation
changed, I brought it back up...
