This is a serious security hole. User hangs up leaving an active session, and
the next person who dials in gets the same session. If they're a nice company
employee, they'll log out and log in to their own account. If they're trying
to crack the machine, they've just succeeded.

I'd rather deal with the tty hangs. You can't break into a hung line. ;-)

But, why hasn't Sequent put its hands around Systech's throat and *demanded*
they fix this problem?
