Getting a strange problem with all the login based kerberos programs...

Setup is this: 
two machines
KDC is a i386 based Linux system running 1.2.4
Client is a ia64 Linux system running 1.2.4

Both are running the eklogin service from inetd (xinetd on the i386,
actually), and the client also is running klogin and kshell, and
kerberized ftp and telnet.

>From the client to the KDC, a "rlogin -x <KDC>" works just fine.
Authentication proceeds normally.
If I try to connect from host to client though, I get some strangeness.

If I run a kerberized rlogin to the system, it seems to authenticate
properly but immediately closes the connection (the logs show an exit
status of 1 for the spawned process from inetd). A telnet session just
seems to hang on connection. However, if I kerberized rsh a specific
command, that runs properly, and kerberized ftp is AOK. 

Obviously, this seems to point fingers at a problem with the login
process, but normal telnet/rservices can work fine on the system, and
when I run login.krb5 on a separate tty by itself with agetty, that too
seems fine.

Anything I'm missing? Need to try?
