Comment 1 Thorsten Kukuk 2005-08-17 15:57:52 UTC
Correct. That was removed.
Comment 2 Dr. Werner Fink 2005-08-17 16:00:30 UTC
Then please correct the manual page.  Also it would
be nice to inform all callers about this, e.g.
/etc/csh.login ...
Comment 3 Thorsten Kukuk 2005-08-17 16:04:31 UTC
Manual page only waiting for checking.
And why inform the customers extra? faillog did not work in the past
and they will see the error.
