Hang after login with HP ProCurve 4108gl

[Stephen Miller]

the hang may be caused by the login script (hlogin?) not recognizing the prompt 
once you get logged in. you can modify the prompt value within the login script.


here's a piece of the hlogin regarding the prompt:

    if $autoenable {
        set prompt "#"
    } else {
        set ae [find autoenable $router]
        if { "$ae" == "1" } {
            set autoenable 1
            set enable 0
            set prompt "#"
        } else {
            set autoenable 0
            set prompt ">"
        }
    }

if your doesn't match the above values then the login script is waiting for the 
correct prompt to appear...it should disconnect after 45 seconds.
