Virtual Terminals

[Pete Holsberg]

AT&T SV/386 R3.2.2

I have
	ALTSHELL=YES
in /etc/default/login, and the SHELL variableis set to /bin/ksh. 
However, when I invoke a new virtual terminal -- either with the hot key
or via 'newvt' -- the shell in the new VT does not execute /etc/profile
and it does not execute $HOME/.profile!  It *does* execute /etc/env and
$HOME/.env!  

I tried 
	newvt -e /bin/sh
but even that does not execute either /etc/profile or $HOME/.profile!!

Is this a bug or is there another of the seemingly endless flags that I
haven't discovered yet???

Thanks,
Pete
