Check out ssh, which does all you want and more (but is only available on
nonus.debian.org and mirrors due to stupid US crypto laws)

The easiest way to do this is to use ssh instead of telnet/rlogin. ssh is
a secure shell, which means your password doesn't go over the network

I don't think prompts is what he was asking about, nor does he have to use
ssh (although this would be preferrable). I've seen this done using some
shell commands in a .cshrc or .profile file that is called after login.
Here are shell scripts that I found you can source or place in your .cshrc

Obviously ssh appears to be the preferred answer but if tcsh is
available on the remote host, check for tcsh's REMOTEHOST environment
variable. It should have
