.Profile file not running

Hi,

I have a machine running Solaris 9. We are having a application user login.
While connecting using putty in telnet directly we will give the application name in username field and it wont prompt for password and directly it will open the application menu. The executable for the application is placed in the .profile file of /home/applicationname directory. But only in one server i am not able to login as application and it is going to /home/applicationname directory instead of application menu. I think the executable is not running in .profile file.Please help me to resolve this issue.

did you check your profile file after login?
