Type and version: Ultra-60 9.0.14 (with mkserv)
Display type: unknown
Shell: /bin/athena/bash
Window manager: twm
What were you trying to do?
Log in with my shell set to bash
What's wrong:
The lines:
# SGI xwsh runs shells as login shells. We don't want this.
if [ "${XSESSION+set}" = set ]; then
exit 0
fi
Prevent me from logging in. The if statement always evaluates to
true. Note that this was a problem on my home machine (running
athena-linux) as well.
What should have happened:
The line with the test should be changed to:
if [ "${XSESSION}+set" = set ]; then
Though, actually, I don't know what this line is there to accomplish.
It forces users to have the XSESSION variable set to log in. (??)
The cshrc version, in /usr/athena/lib/init/login, as the sense of the
test reversed.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
