That doesn't really answer the question. If the RLogin server and the client are both behind a NAT and the public hostname resolves to a *public* hostname, your NAT gateway will have to support "hairpinning" to be able to connect from one to the other using the public IP address. So either enabling hairpinning or use the private IP address (instead of the public hostname/IP address) on the *rlogin command-line.
