by I just installed Solaris 2.4 on a Sparcserver 1000 with 4 cpus today,
and also applied all of the recommended patches. I'm seeing an odd problem -
when someone logs in via rlogin or telnet, they show up as logged in when you
finger at the host, however, when someone logs in using an xterm, shelltool, or
cmdtool, they don't show up as being logged in; however, they do show up as
being logged in as reported by the w command. Here's an example:
----
12:06am up 3:23, 0 users, load average: 0.09, 0.05, 0.11
sundar pts/0 9:34pm 1 9 9 rlogin Malamute.cs.vt.edu -l
cs4
sundar pts/1 9:28pm 55 3 tcsh
sundar pts/2 9:34pm 2 7 7 rlogin Malamute.cs.vt.edu -l
cs4
mmead pts/3 12:06am w
No one logged on
----
Has anyone else seen this behavior? Does anyone know of a fix?
Thanks!
