Hi-

I think I have found what may be a bug.

I am running several zephyrd servers.  If one of these servers crashes
hard (or if you kill -9 the zephyrd to simulate it crashing hard), any
clients connected to this server will get a message saying that
someone tried an unauthorized change to their login information when
the server restarts.

I notice that if it exits nicely that it tells all of the connected
zhms a new server to use and also tells all of the servers that it is
dying.  How about notifying the other servers upon restart.

Thanks,
-Scott
