BUGS

When a user attempts to login via /usr/netware/bin/nwlogin during a grace login, nwlogin responds with the message  ’Sorry’ and exits with non-zero status. This implies that the login to a server failed when  it actually succeeded.   The nwlogin should notify the user that a grace login did not occur (indicating  how many grace logins they have left would be a nice touch).  Supplying nwlogin with an invalid servername or no username does not cause an error message.  nwlogin exits with fail status if already logged-in.
