kilowatt is on a distinguished road
what shell?

I'm using the bash shell, and it seems to behave differently.

When I open up many terminals (via terminal.app), using `w`, `who`, or `finger` produces the same result - one user logged in via the console, ttyp0.

My guess is that your defauly shell is running as a login shell instead of just a shell.
