The RLogin "negotiation" (such that it is) is implemented in the C/C++ source
code and not controllable via JavaScript.

Yeah, that would be a better approach. If you're using the current development
build (v3.16), then you can pass the username and password to the JavaScript
bbs.rlogin_gate method (as the 2nd and 3rd arguments). Like this:
bbs.rlogin_gate(host, name, pass);
If you use that instead of bbs.telnet_gate() in the remote systems's rlogin.js,
that'll allow you to pass whatever name/pass combination you wish via RLogin.
