    Hello,

    I am testing openssh on a Sun Solaris 8 workstation. The ssh and support packages were obtained from Sunfreeware.com.

    I wish to login to our Cisco components which are using ssh and tacacs+ with the Cisco ACS server.
    When I login from a Windows PC with Putty, I am promted for my user name, and then I can enter my password.

    With the Sun workstaion I have to enter " ssh -l user-name IP-address" to login. As different users will use this Sun workstation, it is important that the user is promted for the user name. How can we achieve this?

    Thanks
