           Summary: IRIX utmp problem loginrec.c: line_abbrevname() goes
                    wrong
           Product: Portable OpenSSH
           Version: 3.1p1
          Platform: MIPS
               URL: http://groups.google.de/groups?hl=de&selm=3B979A7D.10809
                    06%40nowhere.org&rnum=4
        OS/Version: IRIX
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: sshd
        AssignedTo: openssh-unix-dev at mindrot.org
        ReportedBy: phgrau at zedat.fu-berlin.de


On IRIX the sshd writes wrong entries in /var/adm/utmp. The line_abbrevname
function does not trim the pseudo tty name correct. i.e. /dev/ttyq1 gets "tyq1"
instead off "q1". So programms like talk and xbiff, who reads /var/adm/utmp
stumble about this wrong entries. There ist a usenet posting describing the same
problem, and saying that it will be fixed, but it did not happen, see URL above.
