I'm trying to get interactive input in my LAM application, but when I
start it with mpirun, another system prompt immediatly appears, and then
when my program prompts me for input, each character either is caught by
the system and echoed to the screen, or caught by my program and not
echoed to the screen.  Which gets each character seems to be totally
random.  I am running lamboot and mpirun on node 0, which is also the
node which is expecting the input.  This is on a network of Sun Sparcs
all running Solaris 2.4, with LAM 6.0 and all 15 patches.  

Any suggestions would be welcome.

Thanks,
Justin
