login stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd in.rlogind
login stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd strace \
-f -o /tmp/rlogin.trc in.rlogind
After you login and it fails, inspect the file in /tmp. You don't have to
be an expert look at the file, it will tell you Bad Permissions or file
does not exist when it fails.
strace is a very useful tool.

PS. I just threw this example together and now that I think about it, tcpd
may not be able to launch strace. run "man inetd" to make sure.
