Depending on what exactly you want to do,

chmod -x /usr/kerberos/bin/rlogin

might be enough.

Probably a better option is to configure the system the way you want
it to be. So:

which rlogin

tells you that /usr/kerberos/bin/rlogin is the one used, so

echo $PATH

probably shows /usr/kerberos/bin. Unless you've done something
yourself, that is almost certainly set somewhere within /etc.

find /etc -type f | xargs grep /usr/kerberos/bin

will point the finger at files like /etc/profile.d/krb5.csh and
/etc/profile.d/krb5.sh

rpm -qf /etc/profile.d/krb5.sh

will tell you which package installed that (on a machine here, I get
"krb5-workstation-1.2.7-44"), so

rpm -ql krb5-workstation-1.2.7-44

shows me all of the files associated with that package. If you don't
want any of them at all, you can probably get rid of the package.

If you don't have root on the machine, you can re-arrange your own
$PATH to exclude /usr/kerberos/bin, but doing that you'll possibly
miss out on future system updates.

Good luck,
