Yet Another bug report from snork.
Running /bin/athena/tcsh, commands like "cd ~sipbtest" fail:
1 snorklewacker:nathanw>cd ~sipbtest
Unknown user: sipbtest.
On all other current Athena machines, running that command
while sipbtest was not in the local passwd database would put me in
/afs/athena/user/s/i/sipbtest, via Hesiod lookup of the home directory
for sipbtest. That Linux isn't doing this is a bug.
