Display type:		SM

What were you trying to do?
	Log in from dialup.

What's wrong:
	As part of the default login process, my login scripts
	tried to start a zwgc.  Since I didn't have a hostmanager
	running at the time, the zwgc process printed the message
	"connection timed out while setting location".

	It then failed to exit, and sat there, ignoring all keyboard
	interrupts.

What should have happened:
	It should not have caused my entire login to hang.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:
	man 1 zwgc
