Hmm.. Looks like I have to object.
It appears that it's right if I telnet to the host, but wrong if I rlogin to
the host.
All of the 'streeter' logins should be from 'absolut'. The one which is
right is a telnet session, all others are rlogins.
Same for calica from bucky.
bash$ who; dpkg --status netstd
