No I am not having it here at home it is on your machine that I am having
the problem.  I am really befuddled at it, maybe my shot at it was too
easy.

I also am not sure how you set up your machine there. The funny thing is
that for instance when I do a who -u here is what I get on my machine...

root at fpac-dev:/etc/ax25# who -u
root     tty1         Jun  5 15:34  old          606
root     tty2         Jun  6 09:14  old          607
root     ttyp0        Jun 15 14:41   .         31352 (192.168.1.202)
root     ttyp2        Jun 15 23:01 00:13       31940 (192.168.1.203)
fpacuser ttyp0        Jun 15 00:22   .         29902
root at fpac-dev:/etc/ax25#

But if I do the same thing on yours I get a little bit different view...

root at fpac:/home/fpacuser# who -u
root     :0           Jun 15 05:38   ?           451
root     pts/1        Jun 15 23:13   .          2739
(rrcs-24-129-134-206.se.biz.rr.com)
fpacuser pts/1        Jun 15 07:54   .          1419
root at fpac:/home/fpacuser#

Looks like I have a zombie fpacuser running too. Going to try to kill it. 
I think I did that when I did a login from a console cmd line...

Again, please do not do another account it is already in there, it
should toss you
out anyhow, but it may just re-create it and then I will have a
directory full of
X junk...
