I actually have done this before, but I guess it was with plain rlogin, because slogin is getting seriously confused. I type wonderful M-x rlogin, then at the prompt answer -l . Emacs opens the familiar *rlogin-@* buffer, but with the disappointing content of 'Pseudo-terminal will not be allocated because stdin is not a terminal.'. Then it takes a while, and fires a Gnome window asking me for my password. I provide it, and nothing happens. Never ever. So I did that again having replaced ssh-askpass-gnome with its Gtk+ and X11 variants, and got same results. So great, it looks like the rlogin package is confused. Tried after removing all of them, and restarting Emacs so it wouldn't perhaps think there was still something there, and got now the befuddling buffer contents: Pseudo-terminal will not be allocated because stdin is not a terminal. ssh_askpass: exec(/usr/bin/ssh-askpass): No such file or directory ssh_askpass: exec(/usr/bin/ssh-askpass): No such file or directory ssh_askpass: exec(/usr/bin/ssh-askpass): No such file or directory ssh_askpass: exec(/usr/bin/ssh-askpass): No such file or directory Permission denied, please try again. ssh_askpass: exec(/usr/bin/ssh-askpass): No such file or directory Received disconnect from 201.6.145.152: 2: Too many authentication failures for leandro Process *rlogin-leandro@dutras.dyndns.org.* exited abnormally with code 255 So what should I do, despair and open Gnome Terminal? I even tried looking at rlogin.el, but my ignorance got the better of me... Shouldn't it just ask me for my password in the minibuffer?
