Hi!

	Most probably, after the first try, the login screen stops on the "password:" request. On the second try the login colects the user name as the passord and therefore fails to succed. On the subsequent tries I guess wtk fails to recognize the LOGIN_QUESTION and/or PASSWORD_QUESTION as defined on wtkserv.ini,  most probably because they have already been presented and detected. I now it's a long shot, but I tried to reproduce your situation in here and that's what I got.
HIH
Best

Assunto: [fourjs-users] Ilogin Authentication problem


Hi,

On a customer we are having a very strange problem :

- the user A tries to log on to the system with wtk ilogin
- he tries with the default user "B", that is defined on the shortcut of a certain PC. As he doesn't "watch" the username, he puts his own password, and it is refused.
- then he tries again, with same user and password, and is refused again
- then he realizes that the username is wrong, he changes to user "A" and puts his own password (user's "A" password) and he logs in
- but the odd thing is that he logs in as user "B", not as user "A"

This happens with this products :

- Linux Server RH Enterprise 3.0
- fglrun -> 3.54.02.20
- Wfe (wtk) -> 3.53.1a

I've tried to reproduce this problem here, against a Sun server (solaris 5.8), and against a Red Hat 8.0 server, and I couldn't reproduce it. I've tried with almost the same BDS version (3.54.01.19) and the exact same WFE version.

But maybe it's a problem of RHEAS ? Or is it a known bug ? Or is something we can configure ?

I've also checked our customer's /etc/hosts.equiv and "$HOME/.rhosts" files, and they don't have any of those configured.

Thanks in advance,

Florencia
