115.0. "Admin/Pathworks Loops" by NNTPD::"[email protected]" (rtoms::support_pw) Wed May 21 1997 12:42

Hi,

One of my customers has a problem with Admin/pathworks looping.

The logon screen is displayed and then characters continuously appear in the 
User Id field. Cpu goes up to 100% and ^Y is the only way out.

These input characters appear to be coming from somewhere else in the system 
- apart from apparently random characters there are meaningful strings too 
(e.g. names).

The last time I tried this, there were lots of strings containing RTS, CTS,
DSR
etc and the user has just been running a protocol analyzer which uses these
in report headings.


I have checked all the UAF quotas against another system where admin/pathworks
is OK - nothing obvious. The system is running VAX V7.1 and Pathworks V6.

Any ideas please?

The user solved this problem himself. 


For info, in his SYLOGIN.COM he had defined TT as a disk/directory. That also
contained several versions of the file .; from which the pathworks/admin input
was coming.
