openssh unix dev - Jan 2000 - .rhosts problem ... backtrackign through code slowly ...

Okay, here's where I've gotten to so far, which isn't far, but it
doesn't
appear that "case SSH_CMSG_AUTH_RHOSTS:" is very being triggered in
do_authloop() in sshd.c ...

Now, from what I can tell, in do_authloop(), this case is triggered by a
packet from the client, with:

                /* Get a packet from the client. */
                type = packet_read(&plen);

So, if I'm right, the client isn't sending over what is necessary? 

client is openssh under FreeBSD/ports, server is Solaris7/pre25 ...

Still investigating ...
