I don't use SSH all that often (probbly should but don't see the option
mentioned on a lot of BBSs) and not familiar with Rlogin.  I can't imagine all
the BBSs out there, SyncTerm or not, having the option that Rlogin would
automatically work.

So for this I'm recommending the option to manually activate a password when
needed.  SyncTerm has the Alt-L feature I mentioned above for the user name
and that works fine.  Something to activate a password next would be helpful.
