No, I ruled that out!  I turned off the sysop PW function.  This is what I
know so far:

1) When you logon and input your name and password, it goes right to new
messages and hangs.  If you try to type "N" for No to read new messages, it
goes back to user name and password prompt. 

2) This only happens when I log on via telnet.  When I log on locally, it
works perfectly fine.  The sequence is: input name and password... it takes
you to the logon.ans i.e., that nice big RENEGADE.  When you hit the enter
key after this, it takes you to the main menu.  It only happens remotely. 

3) logging in as a new user remotely works fine. 

I have one more trick to try and then I will throw in the towel or... I can
have you logon as sysop and see what you think. 

I am just really curious because if I / we can figure this out, it paves the
way for others that want to run classic Renegade :)
