    Hi all,
    there seems to be a problem with the New DeskTop login procedure.
    In fact if there are only "   " (blanks) in the username field,
    no password is asked, the screen changes color but the login box 
    doesn't appear again.
    A customer of mine doesn't like this behaviour a lot, he has to restart
    Decwindows every time it occurs.
    I reproduced this problem on :
    OpenVMS Alpha 6.2-1h3 and 7.0 with Decwindows Motif 1.2-4 (patched
    ALPMOTFALPMOTF01_U4012).
    Have I to open an official case?
    Thanks a lot in advance.
    Sonia

|     This is indeed a fault and I have not seen it reported before.
    
    Please raise an IPMT case, I presume it is only level 3 unless there
    is some special reason your customer is entering blank passwords
    frequently.
