Hi! (This occurs on current SNAP 980520.) If, from a shell, I do a login under a different user name and then return to the shell, then do w, who or finger, it displays the second user as logged on, even though that user has logged out. I presume that login isn't really supposed to be used on from a shell (e.g. SCO OpenServer won't let you do that at all), but I think this behaviour is not desirable. Is this known behaviour, and should it be (or has it been) fixed? Thanks, Ben. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
