/bin/athena/login doesn't work on Redhat 4.0...
It's weird.
The vhangup() call in init_tty() causes login to exit! Worse, it
kills the shell in which login was executed. You can see this
behavior by trying to login to the console (vt01) on lime.
Sal, you created this problem. Any ideas? Redhat 4.0 uses PAM --
could we make Athena PAM Modules instead of hacking the /bin/login
binary itself?
