They print the same thing.  mintty doesn't have a smooth scroll option
-- only jump scroll, so I can't see anything that scrolls.  It
seems like if I cat 20 pages of text, mintty show me the last page,
but I don't see an option to turn off jump scrolling.

I'm not "still using" rlogin - I just switched to it recently
for being able to open a local console/shell window using a terminal
It's about 3-5 times faster than ssh.  For added security (besides
the fact that my login isn't going out on the network for a local
console, my windows machine isn't directly connected to the internet
(behind a proxy) so it makes more sense to not use encryption.
It also allows me to use "SecureCRT" (a remote terminal emulator)
that I use to log into my server (even though I have a dedicated
connection to the server).

Well, it DOES with the old code... with the test code I don't know.
I DO have a local passwd file and my user entry is the same as the above.

My nsswitch.conf is the default (all commented out).
