I had something in all my .profile's (I'm a ksh user), which is my I never
noticed the problem.  Recently, though, we started thinking about
letting more of our non-programming users (i.e. secretaries, VP's,
QC technicians, etc) take advantage of network logins for certain
applications, and it was during the testing phase that I discovered it.
Since we usually try to not make these type of users have to deal with
such things as setting terminals types, I'm hoping there's a way
to fix this.

Thank you for your confirmation on being broken, though.  Knowing that it
happens to someone else will make it easier if I have to call SCO (i.e.
maybe they'll believe it's a bug).
