UNaXcess BBS on a UNIX-PC

I am trying to install UNaXcess 1.00.02 on my AT&T UNIX-pc, running system
software version 3.5.  I have compiled it, installed it, and it works --
with one major problem.  When you first start it, it asks you to register,
either as GUEST, NEW, or by your existing ID.  If I enter either GUEST or
SYSOP (the only current existing ID), everything works just fine.  But if
I try to register as a new user using NEW, all succeeding prompts are
garbled:  They print every other character of the prompt down the left margin
of the terminal.  This same behavior happened when I compiled it with the old
3.0 system software; I had hoped that compiling it with the newer software 
would clear this up, but no such luck.  I tried contacting Mr. Allbery, but
I have not received any reply over several weeks.  Can anyone help me with
this problem?  Anybody else use UNaXcess on a UNIX-PC?  What other BBSs are
available?
