No, this is not a problem with "MAP S1: = ..." as opposed to "MAP INS
S1: = ...".  This only happens when I use the LOGIN.EXE from certain
servers.  Plus, only one path from my local path (i.e. the path
*before* logging in) is eaten each time.

This isn't very likely.  The "other" servers I am talking about are
spread across the Univ. of Wisconsin campus.  It would be very hard to
get them to update.  Actually, it would be very nice if we could
"sever" our server from the rest of the campus, but the ethernet which
our server is connected to is being used by both the Novell server and
our VAX and VAXstation (TCP/IP).  Plus, another site connected to our
server is also using the ethernet to the "outside world".  Oh well.
