System name: tailgunner
Type and version: KN01 7.4G
Display type: PMAX-MFB
What were you trying to do?
go about my work, minding my own business
What's wrong:
I received a zephyr from user "mukul", logged into an RS/6000 that
I was logged into about 16 hours earlier (mint-chocolate-chip).
I was currently on tailgunner, a DECstation.
When he logged in, the motd that should have gotten zwritten
to him did...AND got sent to me.
What should have happened:
I should not have gotten his zephyrgram.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
This happened AGAIN, no more than five minutes later, on different
machines. User "jefft" logged into an RS/6000,
air-traffic-controller. User "pelkofer" had been logged in about
an hour earlier, then moved to VAXstation "navigator". When jefft
logged in, his motd was zwritten to pelkofer as well as to himself.
Thanks, all.
