The rlogin on my sun3/v3.2 passes meta to my vax/Ultrix1.2, and to itself, but the Vax/Ultrix rlogin won't pass it. It seems that this has been fixed in recent releases somewhere. The mapping META-to ESC won't do just the right thing in all cases - if you have the habit of terminating isearches with a meta-character, you will find the ESC terminates the search and the next character is inserted (or otherwise interpreted according to its binding). /jr
