I ran a script that runs kinit and then a few other commands. I hit
^Z at the password prompt, and got a long stream of newlines. Running
"ps" from another window showed the kinit process running.
I experimented a bit more:
Ran kinit from the shell, hit ^Z: "password incorrect", or "generic
error". This seems to be reproducible.
Ran my shell script again, hit ^Z: "password incorrect", only one
shell prompt despite several newlines entered, pty in kbd wait state.
One process in "exiting" state. Killing the shell-script process
restored the pty. This seems to be reproducible.
My shell script starts off with:
#!/bin/sh
stty new dec ; reset
/usr/athena/kinit $USER
if [ $? != 0 ]; then
sleep 5
exit 1
fi
...
I would say that the behavior I got from trying to suspend it is
incorrect, or at least undesirable...
