629.0. "Useing 'Alt Gr' in password and username on PC-keyboard" by COPCLU::PETERC () Fri Apr 04 1997 08:09

Hi, 

I have a customer running Digital UNIX 4.0B on 10 workstations, useing
CDE as there windows interface. They have Danish PCXAL keyboards and 
they want to use []{}|@ in passwords and usernames. To do that they need 
the 'Alt Gr' key, but it only works when logged in.

The customer has just opgraded from DU ver. 3.2G where the 'Alt Gr' key
worked.

Is the a known problem/workaround for this ?????

	Peter, see note 556 -- it reports the same problem.
	Reply 556.6 (by me) explains what's causing the problem and
	offers a workaround.

	The problem has been QAR'ed, but has not been fixed yet.
