Hi!

I have updated to OpenSSH 2.9p1 on HP-UX 10.20.
Since this update, I seem to have problems with utmp/wtmp handling,
in that entries are not removed as expected.
ws01 36: w
 10:06am  up 76 days, 12:52,  12 users,  load average: 0.17, 0.25, 0.20
User     tty           login@  idle   JCPU   PCPU  what
...
root     pts/8         5:28pm159:41                -
...
ws01 37: ps -ef | grep pts/8
(nothing)
ws01 39: lsof /dev/pts/8
(nothing)

>From my observations this seems to happen, when slogin is not finished with
"exit", but the ssh-client is killed (e.g. because it was in a terminal window
and I log off the window manager).

Can anybody verify this behaviour? (Fixes?) I don't remember having seen
this with 2.5.2p2...

Best regards,
	Lutz
