[comp.unix.ultrix] "login:" prompt shows twice

karrer@ethz.UUCP (Andreas Karrer) (11/04/90)

We have a problem with a DS5000 and a DS5840 when users log in from
a cs200 terminal server. They get two login: prompts, but the system
ignores what is typed to the first prompt, e.g:

	cs200>c zapflock
	Connecting... session 1 -- connected to zapflock

	ULTRIX V4.0 (Rev. 179) (zapflock)

	login: blurfl              < or whatever you feel like to type
	login: karrer

	ULTRIX V4.0 (Rev. 179) System #684: Tue Oct 30 17:37:33 MET 1990

The really strange thing is that this does _not_ happen on a DS5400 and
on a DS5820 running V4.0 Rev 179. Any clues?
