This causes some problems with multiple logins. login can retry logins many times. However, the same username as the first login attempt shows up. >How-To-Repeat: In a console, attempt to login with a bogus user/password. Then, login. Look at the corresponding login process running as root. It will show up as login -p bogususer instead of the correct user. >Fix: Perhaps rewrite argv each time a login is attempted such that it always appears correctly. >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: >Severity: non-critical To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the messagehelp
