Post-installation rlogin error

[Breeze Howard]

Mike,

Thank you! Thank you!  That was it.  I hadn't even looked at that, because I
was looking for something more Kerberos related.  /etc/hosts didn't even
list the FQDN, just the short version.  I learn something new everyday. :)

Thanks again,
Breeze
