Ah yes. Welcome to the magic of telnetd/login and getty/login. The first
login: prompt is supplied by your getty/telnetd. When you type in your
login and hit enter, the getty/telnetd execs /bin/login, passing the
username you typed in. If you enter an incorrect login, control does not
pass back to your getty/telnetd but instead /bin/login spits out another
login: prompt.This is rather annoying but this way of "logging people
in" is quite ingrained in unix.

NOTE: take a look at 'strings /bin/login | sort -u | less'. There appear
to be
all sorts of things in there that aren't defined or discussed in the man
page.
Looks like we need a new man page.


good luck
