Hi,

I have been experimenting with xinetd as an inetd replacement on HP-UX. It
works great and as expect with everything so far except this one issue, which
would be a show-stopper for implementing it:

the TERM variable is not being passed when using a remote login.

If I run start remshd with inetd, everything is fine, but under xinetd the
shell has to initialize TERM because its not getting it from login. According
to the man page for login(1):

In the case of a remote login, the environment variable TERM is also
set to the remote user's terminal type.

Anyone else seen this behavior with xinetd? Anyone else using xinetd on HP-UX?
I do not see this problem with xinetd same version (2.3.11) on Linux.

Thanks,

Kevin

ps - please don't tell me to use ssh - I already know the implications of
remsh/rsh :)
