Hello...

Note the following:

{31} (m11-116-6)/mit/mars% hes luddy
    PASSWD: luddy:*:10221:101:Jeffrey T Ludwig,,,,:/mit/luddy:/bin/csh
    FILSYS: NFS /u1/lockers/luddy talos w /mit/luddy
     POBOX: POP ATHENA-PO-1.MIT.EDU luddy
   GRPLIST: luddy:13330
     GROUP: luddy:*:13330:

{32} (m11-116-6)/mit/mars% hes lud
    PASSWD: lud:*:4729:101:Jeffrey T Ludwig,,,,:/mit/lud:/bin/csh
    FILSYS: NFS /u4/lockers/lud talos w /mit/lud
     POBOX: POP ATHENA-PO-2.MIT.EDU lud
   GRPLIST: lud:9688
     GROUP: lud:*:9688:

Both these accounts belong to the same guy.  His username was "lud"
originally.  When he came back from summer, he had forgotten his old
password, so he registered for a new account under the username
"luddy".  For some reason, this worked.

I used the Register program and typed in his information and the
username it returned was "luddy".

I am going to go ahead and file a password change request for his old
account.  Will someone please take a look at this?  He says he would
prefer to keep the old account, username "lud".

Thanks.
