other made it. take a look at times of 'received' in headers.
you may note where a delay occurred.
I'm running Mdk 9.0.  Question I have is when system is freshly booted there
is one user, me.  If I open a console and type users there are now two users,
both me (chris).  If I log out and back in there are now three users (chris).
Any idea why or is this just a falicy or bug in 9.0?
i know that this question has come up before on this and several other list.
i do not recall just what replies where, but you could check archives.
in past, i have noted same happens, and being that i have 9.0 on other boxes,
i tried it to see what results i could get.
start, logged in at tty1, 1 user. logged second tty6, 2 users. logged out tty6,
1 user. logged in tty6, started x from tty6, 2 users. exited x, logged out tty6
and tty1, relogged tty1, 3 users. relogged tty6, 4 users.
logged out tty6, entered 'users /var/run/vtmp' 1 users, entered
'users /var/run/vtmp showed 10 lines of user name.
logged in tty6, entered 'users /var/run/vtmp' 2 users, entered
'users /var/run/vtmp showed about 11 lines of user name.
i prefer to use 'who', then i know where users are. :)

peace out.
