Hi...  Several users have been having problems using m4-035-1.  One
person, upon login, had these problems:
-----------------------
This showed up on my console!
11:47 Setting up environment...
11:47 Starting mwm window manager...
11:47 Starting the Athena Dashboard...
11:47 Creating logout button...
11:47 Creating initial xterm window...
11:47 Running standard startup activities...
11:47 Memory fault

And it won't let me inc mail1

I was using m4-035-1.MIT.EDU           unix:0.0 Mon Dec  2 11:47:39 1991
------------------------

Also, when another user logged in, neither dash nor mwm started up, and
this is what happened when he tried to log out:

--------------------------
When I tried to logout using the menu bar's logout option I got a Dash
box with the message "logout exited with status 1" and an OK button.
When I clithe Dash box disappeared but I didn't logout.  I got the line
/usr/athena/bin/end_session: chdir: not found so I typed "logout" in the
window and it logged me out.  Before the login box appeared the message
"user 'rockwell' does not exist " flashed on the screen.  When I logged
back in the screen is still not right.  I noticed that in the Console
menu the message "Unable to change directory to "".
	You are in "/" instead."  appears.  In the other window the
words "Unknown mode: dec" are at the top.
-------------------------

Could you check this out please?  Thanks.
