just a small breakthrough announcement.... i was able to sort of replicate what Vircom Major TCP/IP did with their client using the worldgroup rlogin client.
i did it in 2 phases.
Phase I - i was able to accept a connection via rlogin and have the server accept the user name/pass (standard stuff i know but wg never did it)
Phase II - i was able to accept a connection via rlogin and have the server accept the login info and enter a specific module.
the code is quite old and i have alot of hacks and redirects to make it happen and right now still required 4 core changes to majorbbs.c / tcpip.c
so i am hoping to make it 100% addon driven soon. just wanted to share the update.

Re: Rllogin 3.0
If you share the code I'll take a peek and see if there are hooks that can be leveraged to make it drop-in replacement for rlogin.
