So far, the only problem I have been able to find is that you might
want to have uwterm execute "remsh" rather than "rsh" under A/UX, as
"rsh" appears to be some sort of restricted shell for second-class
users, and not too useful for remote logins via uwterm.  I have
installed and run uw for a while on an A/UX machine, and it seems to
work fine, including uwterm with the following change:

Mr. Spock!  This disk is damaged!  Do you want to initialize it?
