    We have a concern. There seems to be an extra ksh session opening when some users login. When we do a ps-ef and grep for a user some of them have spawn an extra ksh session. This does not happen all the time.

    It affects the routines we use to track users sessions and login counts. If any experiences this problem, would you have an idea of what is wrong and how to correct it??

    Below is a snapshot of what the problem looks like!

    Thanks in Advance!
