While I was able to run 'make check' successfully on a RH8 box, I
noticed that during the 'rsh' tests I was frequently asked to type
my password into a tk window that was popping up !
Is there some documentation that explains how to prepare the
environment so these tests can be performed non-interactively
(a typical 'nightly build' scenario) ?
