System name:		m66-080-13
Type and version:	VAXSTAR 7.2P
Display type:		SM

What were you trying to do?
     Use the various options presented in the login window in the 7.2
     release in m66.  I tried all the "Other Options"  Only "Shut Down
     Window System" and "Display Console Window" worked.

What's wrong:
      With "xcluster","TechInfo", "Library Access", "xinfo", "Login to MITVMA",
      "Moira", and "lucy" the screen goes black then grey for about 5 seconds,
      and then a login window reappears.

      OLH and Display Workstation Characteristics create an exterm with the
      "$" prompt and give the error, "xterm: can't execvp
      /usr/athena/timeout"

What should have happened:
      These options should have worked as they were supposed to.

Please describe any relevant documentation references:

none.
