System name:		the-other-woman.mit.edu
Type and version:	Sun-Blade-100 9.0.11 (with mkserv)
Display type:		ifb

Shell:			/bin/athena/tcsh (/usr/local/bin/sipbtcsh?)
Window manager:		/usr/local/bin/vtwm.gamma

What were you trying to do?
	look at the new idle screen motd after it changed in AFS


What went wrong?  
	xlogin does not display the new MOTD until something
	causes the screen to un-idle and re-idle


What should have happened?
	under 8.4 and previous versions of athena, the new MOTD would
	appear within about 10 minutes of it being changed.


Yo, got any documentation, or other info?  
	Could this be an unintended consequence of reactivate being
	pulled out of xlogin or something.
