Playing with krlogin I found the connection to be in cleartext

Today I'm playing with kerberos on old solaris10 machine (I know support is ending, security, etc.. is a local vm, used for testing and knownledge). Setup kerberos on Solaris10 server, I made rlogin with Slackware client (rlogin kerberized using the krb5-appl package). On server I run tcpdump to see if any text in clear go and...

On client

/usr/bin/krlogin -PN solaris10
echo 22mypassword\!

On server

tcpdump -i e1000g0 -xX -vv|gegrep --color mypassword

0x0030:  cc82 bd5d 3232 6d79 7061 7373 776f 7264  ...]22mypassword!

This mean is not encrypted.

I have missed something, or kerberos encrypt only "password exchange?"
