When I login to the Unix-PC somewhere in the login process
there is a cd to /u/$LOGNAME/Filecabinet.

If the user doesn't have a Filecabinet, as some users do not (uucpadm
for instance) the error message:

cannot cd to /usr/$LOGNAME/Filecabinet

whips by.

I think I tracked this down to the login process.  But does anyone
know if we can turn off this attempt to cd to a non-existent directory??

I hate programs that make unusual assumptions, why can't it just cd
to the directory listed in /etc/passwd & stay there??
