problem with kerberos telnetd on AIX

[David McWilliams]

AIX allows administrators to set limits (stacksize, datasize, number of 
files, etc.) for individual users as defined in the file 
/etc/security/limits.

We noticed that limits are not set for users when they login using kerberos 
telnet, but they work fine when users log in with ssh.

I posted a note on comp.unix.aix, and someone told me that telnetd needs to 
call setpcred to set limits in AIX.  I looked in the source code for ssh 
and found the following in the function do_setusercontext (sets login name, 
uid, gid, groups):

    #ifdef HAVE_SETPCRED
                 setpcred(pw->pw_name);
    #endif /* HAVE_SETPCRED */

I found no reference to setpcred the telnetd source code.

Does anyone know if there is a version of kerberos telnetd with a call to 
setpcred?  If not, do any of you telnetd experts have any suggestions for 
how to modify it?
