Can rlogin be tricked into thinking it's hooked to a termianl

I'm trying to run some terminal input throught a filter and then to rlogin.
Something like - "filter | rlogin host". This seems to work if I set the
filters input mode to -canonical with the exception that rlogin will not
send the terminal width and height automatically.  This causes trouble on
my SUN where the windows can change sizes.  Is there some way to fool rlogin
into sending this information?  Thanks very much.
