Notes:
 There's no tcpdump on my 4.2 box
 skyr is the 4.2-BSD box
 fire is the FreeBSD-5.3 box
 high is just an alias in my named for 192.168.x.255

Could this problem be due to different broadcasting convetions for 4.2 & 4.4,
perhaps triggered by eg arpd or named etc doing discovery every minute or so ?
(But FreeBSD worked for years OK to that 4.2-BSD, & I recall all FreeBSD are 
4.4)

Looks to me like skyr decided to close the connection, and it closed as expected. I think the problem is probably above the TCP layer - have you tried an older version of rlogin to see if that makes a difference?

Sorry about the delay in responding to this, I got sidetracked, and then I got a cold. :)
